The real-life von Trapp family from 'The Sound of Music' built a hotel in Vermont after fleeing the Nazis. Here's what it's like to visit. The Trapp Family Lodge provided a cozy winter getaway for my family of three, away from the higher-end ski resorts in Stowe, Vermont.

Talk about 6 degrees of separation. If you are more than 3 degrees from Terry, and you are in the media or ad industry, you need to change that immediately. The industry certainly would not be the same without Terry (or Luma Partners). #adtech #leadership #podcast #banker
