What’s the creek like now? The one next to me is way up there and still rising.
Hope you're on high enough ground and all is well, was in New Paltz today, the Wallkill had the road up to Mohonk closed.

Oh yeah, that’s Springtown Road. I lived up there one year in a trailer on the riverbank. The water came up so fast we couldn’t hook up to move so we chained the trailer to the trees and abandoned camp in a boat. Came back days later to find our rig had stayed high and dry on an “island”. Good times.

I also remember during one of the hurricanes the river was filled with floating pumpkins which was kind of a funny sight.

It’s one of the few rivers that flows north. If there is a mid-winter warmup upstream in Jersey and the river is still iced up up north it can be real shitshow.

Hope you're OK. After Irene I keep a closer eye on this stuff. :)
The Schoharie creek is in pretty good shape now. It got pretty high - there's an old mile race by me that doesn't really get much water. It was flowing fast.
Friends off the mountain are having some road flooding issues.
 
I'm don't need you to say "Sorry" - but thanks for the sentiment.
I like Hunter.
I like the riding and the terrain.
I like living here next to the creek.
I like the house I live in
I like my friends that live in town.
I like how the town is getting more diverse and accepting.
I like the food options between here and Windham.
I like the hiking and kayaking.
I like that I'm close to NYC for work and close to my aging family.
I like that I can ride mid-week.
I like all my friends that work at the mountain.

I'm good.
Rt on
