While the river was a little low, Sean was great at pointing out how to navigate. He also kept up with all of us, from the fastest to the slowest (me). Sean was a real hit with the 12 and 14 y/o grandchildren, finding the best swimming spots. He also took lots of photos and sent them to us after the tour. And I have to also mention Asa, our driver. He and Sean were a great team. I highly recommend this tour if you are looking for a family outing.

With State Park still closed for a few more weeks, we were looking for a way to rent kayaks for a…read morefew hours. I emailed Umiak and paid over the phone for a 2pm rental at the Waterbury Reservoir. It was super easy. Perle and his co-workers were extremely helpful and got us in the water just after 2. We had both kayaked before. The boats are in great shape, everything was clean and in good working order. Understandably, the parking area was quite full, but Perle encouraged us to park along the road, making it less challenging to leave later. We had until around 430pm to return the boats, which was helpful because there was a bit of a bottleneck at the boat launch on a Friday afternoon. They took everything back to the shop, saving is a trip! We had a great time, the price was right ($45 x 2 for 2.5 hrs), and we'll love to come back!

TLDR; Really wanted a kayak Umiak advertised. Was worried it would be sold before I could get…read morethere. Was assured no worries. Gave them my credit card info etc. to hold the boat. Arrived as it was leaving with another customer. I was very interested in a kayak Umiak advertised on their website. I called and spoke to Brian on Sunday to confirm it was there. He advised it was there. I explained that I was VERY interested and was concerned it would be sold before I could come see it. I was assured it was fine and not to be concerned. Monday we had a snow storm. I called and spoke to Brian. I explained I was really wanted that kayak and was worried it would be sold before I could get there. I provided Brian with my credit card info etc. and asked if he could consider it SOLD. He took all my info and said he wouldn't charge the card until I got there but that the Kayak was mine. I spoke to another person there Tuesday and explained that, as it was a 14' kayak, I'd like to come with a trailer but couldn't be there until Saturday. I was assured that my name was on that kayak, they had even just wiped it down for me and it would be ready for me Saturday. I explained again that I was concerned about it being sold before I could get there but was assured it was fine. Saturday I arrived just as the kayak I had "purchased" was leaving in the bed of another persons pickup. Brian apologized, said he had messed up, etc. none of which does me any good. A specific trip was made to Stowe. If I'd had any indication I should get there earlier I would have. I'm not sure if this is incompetence or a lack of ethics on their end but unfortunately I, as a consumer, have no recourse but to complain. Maybe someone in the future will be aware that this is not a business that lives up to it's word.

I own too many pair of Darn Tough socks. I keep buying because the quality is unmatched and because…read morethey are here in the USA. (I even have a new order pending shipment). I have never used the warranty service that I can recall but the one time I worked with customer service was stellar; I was working with someone who took pride in their job and it was evident. Oh, I should make sure I avoid an implicit message about value: I don't keep buying because the product wears out quickly; the price isn't "big box" store pricing, but the product similarly isn't "big box" quality. I still own socks from 6 years ago that are as solid as a brand new pair.(not-so-privately I dream that my repeated purchases will lead to the "Bob sock" a heavyweight mid-calf super colorful creation with "Bob" in the knit)...I hope I am not the only delusional fan who has this idea.

Their indestructible super socks inevitably developed holes, and it's true that they did replace…read morethem. It's also true that they don't let you get a gift card with your warranty -- truly cannot imagine why -- and that they automatically and without your permission sign you up for something called shop.app that sends you spam emails and is very difficult to delete your account from. I'm sure there are other companies that make durable socks, and I'll be googling around to see what they might be.
