Irene

Well, has you all know Vermont was hit quite hard by our good friend Tropical Storm Irene this past August. Our road did sustain some flooding and while the water did creep up our lawn, being up on a hill proved very advantageous. We came out unscathed as did most of our town. We were the lucky ones. The only huge loss in our town was our watering hole, the "Norwich Pool" - hopefully they will rebuild.
