But items outside the athletic arena will pop up, like the nation's most photographed barn in Reading or a very famous folk artist in Brandon. Or a trip to the Vermont History Expo in Tunbridge to learn what made it my favorite event in Vermont. There are many more stories in these pages every bit as interesting. Tom chose the format of writing about a different town in each chapter because place has always been very important to him. He is a voracious reader of nonfiction and never reads without the atlas next to his chair. When he encounters a town he is unfamiliar with he looks up its location, see what cities or towns it is near and its population. <i>Maple Mayberrys and Other Sweet Spots</i> is a journey to some of his favorite places populated by people who have stories meant to be shared. Enjoy the ride!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><i>Tom always has a way to come up with that one little nugget in his stories that would connect one generation to another. Classic Haley!</i> - Jack Healey, the Voice of the Castleton University Spartans</p></p> <p><i>Tom Haley has thrived for many decades as an inveterate force for the good in journalism and in life. He has written what can best be described as a love story, an ode to the beauty of small town living in and out of Vermont. As a proud Proctor native he has lived a selfless and generous life for over 70 years, the penultimate family man, writing about the people and places that are the essence of rural America, with the passion and wisdom of one who has immersed himself in what makes that life so special and unique.</i>-David Wolk, life-long educator and former president of Castleton University</p></p><br>
