For the last few days, I have been glued to my computer looking for any news I could find about the storm damage in Vermont. My hometown was one of the hardest hit, losing several houses, part of the cemetery, and all routes out of town. They were an island, cut off from the outside world. My mom is fine, and has been keeping herself very busy helping others. This is what Vermonters do best- pull together as a community to help those in need. The link below shows some aerial footage of the damage.

Since these photos were taken, they have built a footbridge over the large, downed bridge span as well as created at least one route out of town. The restaurants in town have been feeding everyone, and the Red Cross has airlifted in food and medical supplies.
