loon blew up. well not so much blew up as erupted, since loon is a volcano. so yea most of lincoln has been destroyed, and loon itself has actually blown up from the eruption. luckily no one was in lincoln at the time, they had all gotten evacuated in time thanks to the quick thinking of local John Panakio. the residents of lincoln have migrated south towards the greater waterville valley area to seek shelter, since there's great abundance in that area. so all the hard work that has gone into the hike and huck has been destroyed.
the story hasn't been on the news yet since it happened not only 10 hours ago, but i thought i'd let you all know before you drove all the way there only to find nothing.
