When life hands you lemons: Catskills version

Deadpan quote of the week goes to Callicoon dairy farmer Adam Diehl, the subject of a story in Tuesday's Sullivan County Democrat. Here's Diehl on the apocalyptic storm that blew through his farm last week, uprooting trees, tearing shingles off roofs and flattening fields:

“We will have a lot of firewood for maple syrup season next year. I guess that’s one way of looking at it.”

The Democrat also has a great photo of Adam and his father, Pete Diehl Sr., standing in front of a thoroughly flattened silo that went down in the storm.
