Yeah, it was mostly summer residents, and everything got boarded up for winter. They didn't really do much road plowing either, the locals who lived year round could be counted in the dozens and had snow cats and the like.Middleburgh is over in Schoharie county to give you an idea of the distances, so those trucks were pretty handy. They came door to door for you. But in winter, you were truly on your own. That's why most upstate kitchens are as large as they are, they double as meatpacking plants. Heh. We'd head up this way normally through Saugerties so we could hit up the huge Grand Union in Cairo for long term rations, the A&P in Middleburgh was only moderate-sized but it did the trick. |
