FILE - This 2004 file photo provided by the Trapp Family Lodge shows the Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe, Vt., lit up for the Christmas holidays.

The family moved to the spot in 1942 after visiting Vermont on a singing tour and vacationing in Stowe. (AP Photo/Trapp Family Lodge, Don Landwehrle, File)STOWE, Vt.
