If you check www.cnn.com this morning--at least until something displaces it--the flooding in Alstead and other parts of our area is a lead story with a picture. The headline is "Flooding in Eastern States Leaves 10 Dead." This is a convenient piece for emailing to friends elswhere who might be interested in the story.
Incidentally, don't terrible events like this bring out amazing stories? Yesterday morning, while chatting with Neal Swift of Alstead and Chick Miller at the gas station in Walpole, a woman and two cildren appeared with bags of freshly baked cookies to give to the fellows working on the street clean-up. I'm kicking myself that I failed to get their names. CCB
