For those of us fortunate enough to be on the mountain, we were lulled to sleep last night by a lovely rain. Today I’ve enjoyed so much watching from my desk, the turkeys down in our little meadow. They have been having a wonderful time grubbing for bugs.
However, as the locals know, when you’re out and about, you really need to be cautious. Even a little bit of rain usually brings rock slides. All three grades seem to be a magnet for small rocks or some huge boulders landing in the road.
One of our new neighbors left early this morning for work and let me know there are rocks to avoid in the road. Many of us have stopped and moved rocks to the side but often they are too heavy. That is when the County Road Station crew is so wonderful getting those boulders moved. I’m always thankful when I see them go by with the snow plow blades, like I did this morning. Even though we had no snow last night, they were out traveling the roads taking care of any mud and rock slides. When you come across those situations, simply call 911 and they will get the message to our great crew that works the mountain.
Thank you to all mountain folks, including our emergency responders who help keep our mountain safe and the very special place it is.
