That was a heck of a weekend in Vermont as well.

We've been watching the ABC News with Meteorologist Steve Caporizzo showing pics and talking about the Schoharie Creek and how wide it became during the recent rains. Frightening. Plus so many farmers lost their barns, animals, etc. Widespread destruction in both states......yours and ours.
Yes, it was the Thruway. I've driven over the new bridge many times since and every time I approach the bridge I can't help thinking about those who dropped to their deaths that day!
