By Cal Garrison, a.k.a. Mother of the Skye This week’s horoscopes are coming out under the light of a Libra Moon. Earlier this week the moon turned Void-of-Course. We’ve talked enough about the Void-of-Course Moon for you to know that whenever we are under this influence we are pretty much off the hook and free…

Courtesy of Dave Hoffenberg TURKUAZ By DJ Dave Hoffenberg Turkuaz makes its Killington debut Thursday night at the Pickle Barrel nightclub. I’m really looking forward to this show. A few weeks ago when I interviewed Rob Somerville of Kung Fu, he spoke very highly of them. That — and the songs I’ve heard online — make…

By Cal Garrison, a.k.a. Mother of the Skye This week’s Horoscopes are coming out under the light of a Cancer moon, on the eve of a blue moon eclipse, on the Aquarius/Leo axis. On top of all of this Ground Hog Day, a.k.a. the Mid-Winter Cross Quarter, or “Imbolc” is coming up on Friday, Feb. 2,…

By Marguerite Jill Dye On Martin Luther King Day, while investigating the roots of segregation in America, I stumbled upon an article in The Atlantic that shocked even my husband, who grew up in segregated North Carolina. “Segregation Had to Be Invented” by Alana Semuels describes what occurred between the Civil War’s end and the…

By Dom Cioffi The cold weather gripping the country has put a damper on a lot of people’s fun – including my son. Because of this, we allowed him to have a couple of friends visit this past weekend to hang out and have a sleepover. I’ve decided I hate sleepovers because the boys have reached…

By Cal Garrison, a.k.a. Mother of the Skye This week’s horoscopes are coming out under the light of an Aries Moon, in the wake of the Sun’s entrance in Aquarius. As I look at the chart for this week, I see that there are all kinds of planets and asteroids in Aquarius, including the Moon’s…

By DJ Dave Hoffenberg Oorah! After spending the last four years in the Marines, Jordan Snow finds himself back doing what he loves best: playing music in Killington with his band, K-Town’s Finest. There are many opportunities to see him play — and they’re all at The Foundry. Friday night, Jan. 19 at 7 p.m. he…

By Brady Crain I do love the cold. I don’t have much more to say about it, but I really like cold snaps. I look at it like an endurance contest. How much cold can I stand to wear flip flops? How long can I work outside in my shirtsleeves? I just love it when…

By Marguerite Jill Dye One day last August I was stupefied when words spilled from my pen without pause or thought, as fast as I could write them down. When I reread what I’d written, I was confused and afraid that such words had poured out. I could only imagine they must have come from…

By Cal Garrison, a.k.a. Mother of the Skye This week’s Horoscopes are coming out under the light of a Capricorn Moon. At approximately 9:17 p.m. (EST) on Tuesday evening, the Moon turned New when it conjuncted the Sun, at 26 Degrees Capricorn. Every time I sit down to write this column I am awed by…

By Marguerite Jill Dye We are beginning to recognize the immense power of Facebook as a forum, and vehicle of propaganda and fake news since learning about Russia’s cyberwarfare and meddling in the U.S. election. Through Russian Facebook and Instagram accounts, 80 million political posts by fictitious organizations were sent to 23 million American voters…

This Thursday make sure you head to the Pickle Barrel for the long awaited return of Kung Fu. It’s been three years since they funked up Killington and they’re psyched to do it again. I had the pleasure of speaking to Rob Somerville, saxophonist and vocalist for the band, who has been playing up here…

By Cal Garrison, a.k.a. Mother of the Skye This week’s Horoscopes are coming out under the light of a Libra Moon. Before we can talk about what’s coming up for this week, we have to back track to last week. As much as life seems like everything is the same as usual, in the last…

By Meghan McCarthy McPhaul Near the house where I lived during my Colorado years, there was a trail that wove through a sprawling grove of perfect quaking aspen trees. In spring, the soft green of emerging leaves was one of the first signs of warming weather. Come fall, their gilded leaves, fluttering in the breeze,…

By Dom Cioffi The first “Star Wars” film came out in May of 1977. I was 11 years old and a typical wide-eyed youth. I remember going to see the film at the mall (when malls were still fashionable). I knew while standing in line with the troves of other viewers that something special was…
