Sandy's Here!




Robert called me to the living room to see the "tree branch in our front yard." What an understatement!

And, actually, the branch is mostly in the street and our neighbor's yard.

That's one of the smaller trees in the neighborhood. It used to live in front of our house, where we usually park one of the cars. It was a problem tree, so to speak, because it had undermined the sidewalk causing a major tripping hazard. The trees and sidewalks are considered town property and we asked to have the situation corrected even before we took ownership of the house. The town's response was to make a cement ramp to cover the uneven sidewalk surfaces. Mother Nature had the final say on the matter about 30 minutes ago.

What's scary is that we haven't entered the most damaging phase of the hurricane yet.
