Hurricane Irene 2011......

Well, we made it through without much damage in our community.  We lost some trees and new fencing that was just installed this year.  This is right next door to us.  Our neighbors lost their tree next to the deck.


The fencing below was damaged due to the tree that fell through it from the other side.


My hubby and I decided to take a ride into town and see what was going on there.  Couldn't believe what we saw!  This is the road that takes you into our town.  You normally would go over the bridge.  The building there is one of our Historic buildings here in town.  I guess we know why it has been empty for many years now.



A car dealership tried to get all of his cars moved.



Check out this guy's mailbox right in the middle.



Well, that's what is going on in our little town.  I believe that most of the rivers have crested now, so hopefully people can get cleaned up.  Things will never be the same for some people.  Our hearts go out to them.

Any one else affected by Hurricane Irene?

  3. That high water is scary! I had so hoped that darn storm would have gone right out to sea and spared everyone!
