Wilmington, Vermont






























These photos were shot on Main Street in Wilmington, Vermont.  I don't work in Wilmington, but this town is in our district (or Supervisory Union as we say here in Vermont).  My school is on the opposite side of the Reservoir.    If you are familiar with Wilmington...you've probably eaten at Dot's Diner.  That is Dot's in the photo above.  You can see the balcony on the back of the restaurant just barely above water.
The water has gone down in Wilmington, but I can only imagine what it left behind in the way of clean-up.
My school is scheduled to open on Tuesday...don't know how I'll get there yet because the bridge is still out and the road up the mountain is closed.

Irene in Vermont



My son Richard and his beautiful bride Katie were married here just one week ago.  This is the covered bridge at the Grange Hall in front of what was once Norman Rockwell's House in Arlington, Vermont. It's a much loved swimming hole and a great location for a summer wedding.  Hard to believe this beautiful bridge is gone.

This little video was shot not far from my house.  I run across this bridge every week as it's part of my four mile loop.
