The poor Goodspeed!

I am on the other side of the river from there & south a town.

I went to our town dock at about 11am & took a picture or 3 & I was surprised it wasn't up as high. It was high by about 5 feet from the norm but not that high at that point.

Where is the park picture? By the Goodspeed also?

It wasn't up as high as I thought it would be. I remember years ago they had 5 feet of water in the offices on the ground floor. The park is across the street from the parking lot of the theater on the way to the airport. I noticed today that a section of the train tracks along RT 154, just as you leave your town and the Goodspeed comes into view, was washed out maybe about 50 ft of track was being ripped up.
