Greener Pastures

Today the pasture beside Craig Mosher’s excavating business is surprisingly green. His donkey, Pedro, rescued several years ago from a horse trailer he was living in, and his two sheep companions, Byron and Jessie, are grazing nearby. If it weren’t for the demolished country store next door, some noticeable openings in the trees by the river, and a flag marking the high water line hidden in the trees, one might never know of the devastation caused by Tropical Storm Irene about three years ago.
