Windham, NY Devastation.

 
Main Street, Windham




As you may know, the town of Windham, NY was devastated by Irene, along with many of their homes and businesses. My family has a house up there and it's a place that I hold close to my heart.
The bridge behind the church.

I'm particularly upset to see the pictures of my favorite Windham Breakfast spot. "The Catskill Mountain Country Store" suffered major damage. It was a family-run restaurant, that always served the freshest farm grown food.  The best part of this restaurant was their "looking zoo".... comprised of pigs, goats, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, and miniature horses, all rescued from local shelters.

  1. Terrible! We were just there two weeks ago at the Country Store. It's one of our favorite places to visit up there. Very sad.
