Still more Irene

South Burlington, Vermont

I wrote about Otter Creek in Vergennes.  Here is a video from youtube.  It shows the view from the top of the falls.  Down below is the place where we dock when we're there.  Unbelievable.



Below is another video showing other places in Vermont.  It is very sobering and scary.  Our hearts go out to all the people damaged.  Go to vermontredcross.org to donate.



On the lighter side is something I forgot to mention.   Sunday night as Irene expeneded her fury against us, the wind was blowing us toward shore.  The storm passed more west than expected and we may have been close to the center and thus the wind direction shifted more than we expected.

Anyhow, soon after dark we were huddled inside reading books when mosquitoes started showing up.  How the h* did mosquitoes manage to fly from the sure against a hurricane to get out to the boat?  I sure have no answer for that.
