I'm fine Sandy! Thanks. I live on top of a mountain, so I got no damage. My friend had a tree land on her house up here, with no real damage. The hurricane caused a lot of wind, and rain, but the real damage is from flooding. The town I shop in, and go to for everything, Margaretville, had a terrible flood. Our Freshtown and CVS were wiped out. I hope they rebuild! A lot of other stores were flooded out too. It is heartbreaking to see your town wash away! Two nearby towns, Fleischmans and Arkville were evacuated. Fleischmans is destroyed so I hear, and one woman died. I posted pix on fb.
A lot of roads are closed, bridges are out, I think parts of the Thruway is closed (the main road to NY). The losses up here are devestating, and I am so sad for everyone. There are a lot of people who are poor up here, and flood insurance is out of the question. I am also sad because of Martgaretville. It's a great town, and I don't know what will happen now. It is even more awful because I know these people. This county ad Broome County, next to us, sustained enormous flood damage. Many towns were flooded out. The Catskills need prayers please.
