the mighty mighty blackstone

We went down to the river, and baby the river was wide. Down to the river we did ride. Ay yi yi!
It never rains but it pours. The firetrucks are pumping out basements and yards, people are evacuating riverside lofts and houses, the National Guard is shutting down bridges and highways. In Woonsocket we lost power, but otherwise were high enough to be relatively dry. Tomorrow, we'll see what's up on Block Island. Full moon tonight, too.
