Boy With The Boot - Wallingford, VTThe 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.

We sleep safe in our beds because rough men (and women) stand ready in
the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.
George Orwell
'The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in
any war, no matter how justified, shall be directly proportional as to
how they perceive the veterans of earlier wars were treated and
appreciated by their nation." General President George Washington
"The
man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has
wasted 30 years of his life."
