I remember that storm very well, too, Maggie. It torn up New England pretty well.
When the 30 ft wide, 2 foot deep Scantic River became a half mile wide and took out the only bridge to get off our mountain, it took the Army three weeks to come and put up a Bailey bridge.
I thought that was pretty damn good considering we were just less than 100 people in no danger, we even had power, just couldn't go to work.
Meanwhile the cities and towns along the Conneticut River were really fucked up and hundreds of bridges, all over the map, were gone.
I liked Ike.
