Yeah, things are bad here. Every major road in the state sustained damage. A number of towns are completely cut off. Just unbelievable. We got lucky here in northwestern Vermont and didn't get it as bad as down south, but some of the towns up here got flooded too.

I guess I picked a good time to break my leg; riding possibilities are going to be seriously limited for a while.
