Couple wants Vt. independence day
MONTPEILIER, Vt. (AP) - An Essex Junction couple who can trace their family heritage back to the 14 years Vermont was an independent republic are lobying to declare Jan. 15 as Vermont Independence Day.
Linda and John Whitney say such a state holiday would promote the state's unique history and could increase tourism.  They wouldn't mind if it also led to renewed independence of Vermont, but they're happy for now just seeking a day to recognize the streak of independence that gave the state its start.
"There are a lot of people who have no idea that Vermont was an independent republic," Linda Whitney said.
The idea has gained quick acceptance. Rep. Anne Donahue, R-Northfeild, learned of the idea from a constituent and thought it made sence.
So, there's expected to be a bipartisan resolution introduced in the Leegislature's opening days that would declare Jan. 15 Vermont Independence Day.

Sounds really fun!
