Boy With The Boot - Wallingford, VT

The Boy With The Boot was a gift to the Town of Wallingford, Vermont in 1898, in memory of Arnold Hill, by his children. One of his sons, who lived in Chicago, had seen a similar statue there, and the siblings all agreed that such a statue would be a fitting memorial to their late father, who had been the owner of the Wallingford Inn from 1861-1871. It is presumed that damage of some sort (c1910) prompted him being stored away and seemingly forgotten until the Inn's new owner found him in the attic in 1920. He was restored, and has occupied this same position in front of the Inn ( intersection of Rt.7 & Rt.140 ) ever since (taken indoors during the winter to avoid weather damage). He has become enough of a local icon to have been adopted as the official logo of the town.

At New England Explorer it is our goal  to create a New England Travel Guide that will truly be "Your Gateway To New England " ™  including travel information for Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Just as travelers and tourists from previous centuries packed such essential gear  as a compass and map, twenty first century travelers will be carrying such travel aids as global positioning instruments, cell phones, Palm  Handhelds and Notebook  computers. Their hotel rooms and motor homes and cars will be wired for the internet. It wasn't too many years ago that the hospitality industry revolutionized itself by making in room telephones available. Then came television, Cable TV, VCRs and even Fax Machines. The competitive edge in the 21st Century will be technology.
