Philmont

Here are the latest closings and cancellations due to today's winter storm.

Now that ol' Monte is back up with power and internet, I thought I'd share a few photos from my home town of Philmont, NY way down in Columbia County.  While I was up here with you in the Capital Region, my mom took these photos before the town was under a voluntary evacuation yesterday due to Hurricane Irene.

You have probably never heard of my hometown - the Village of Philmont.  Yes, we're so tiny, we are considered a "village".  However, this tiny village houses a big breath-taking piece of nature.  High Falls, a water fall hidden from the every day passer by, makes for the perfect sunny day getaway.
