New York residents?

We are not sure but hoping that all this time in New York is not going to require us to take up residency. The Erie is still closed. At docktails last night we heard that more than 6" of rain dumped on Utica and Herkimer Fri. night and both cities are flooded. The canal authority got most of the dams open to let the water pass but 2 were not opened in time and 1 of those sustained damage. There are also some areas that have shoaled from mud silt to the point that you can walk across them. They only have 1 dredge up there so it could be up to another 2 weeks until the canal is navigable. All this and more rain forecast this week. Everyone is trying to remain calm and explore their options. Meanwhile, enjoy some of the pictures of stuff floating past us yesterday.
