BURLINGTON
First Aired: December 2009

Everyone knows that Vermont offers great skiing, but, our host, Shannon McDonough checks out Burlington’s summer scene for the gay community.  She spends her day chatting with Alison Bechdel of “Dykes to Watch Out For”, preparing a meal with local lesbian chef, Donnell Collins and suiting up in SCUBA gear for a shipwreck dive in Lake Champlain.  When the sun sets, Shannon catches a set with local singer/songwriter Gregory Douglass and joins the House of LeMay drag queens for a drink - or six.
