U guys starting to get cleaned up yet?
I think I read 100 pieces of equipment. I believe all communities have at least emergency access. Most major routes have access through except 107 which is *** existent in places.

Good morning and have a terrific Tuesday Maine.

There may still be houses that are still cut off but o believe most of the major routes have some level of serviceability

Nope, but the apples on my tree are looking pretty red, so I'm thinking Apple Fritters Time!

Maybe make some applesauce for the side, and some apple pie for dessert!

It looks like was a good year for apples!

Now If I could figure out how to keep the damn turkeys out of my blueberry bushes....I'd have a good blueberry year, too.
