Everyone has seen photos of the damage inflicted by Hurricane Sandy that destroyed New Jersey, NYC, & Long Island as well as other areas on the East Coast. I am finally back on line after 4 days without power. It has been a long ordeal. My block was extremely fortunate. We didn't have any trees fall and no flooding but the entire area is devastated. This is a photo of a tree that fell between the street, smashed, the car, and blew out the tires. No one was hurt.

The destruction in NYC is unreal as well as in New Jersey. Places that I have taken many of my photos are in ruins.
I have not had school all week. This is unprecedented.
We will rebuild.
Happy to hear that you and yours are safe and you didn't incur any serious damage.
So sad to hear more firsthand of the total devastation and its impact.
Hoping for a great recovery for all.
"... and behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice." I Kings 19:11-12.
I have said many prayers for the people who were
in harms way and will continue to do so.
Congratulations on your Blue for this timely
photo!
SO GLAD you escaped unscathed, though you are surrounded by ruins.
My thought and prayers are with all that were in
Sandy's path of destruction.
Congratulations on the AC& the VIP!
Glad that all in your block are ok and that power is restored.
The clean up will happen, the land will heal. Homes will be rebuilt, but, loved ones will never be forgotten.
and that your house wasn't flooded,
or destroyed by the strong winds, Linda.
The devastation is so shocking and our hearts
are with you all as you recover from this!!
glad you are safe and sound.
Congratulations on the AC.
I have fond memories of Jones Beach as a kid. The boardwalk and the sports activities were well operated and maintained then. I am so sorry to hear you description of the damage.
Linda
Congratulations on your AC.
Congratulations on the World View recognition!
My husband and I walked around Abbot Blvd. in Ft. Lee and in areas of Cliffside Park. Your photo of the downed & uprooted tree mirrors what we saw. Lots of power lines down and most homes without service, too.
Frantic residents waited for gas for hours, either in cars or on line holding their empty gas containers. Curfew for pedestrians in Ft. Lee from 6PM to 6AM, as it was too dangerous to walk around.
We live in a 1 bedroom hi-rise on 26th Fl where we lost water and power, which included use of the elevators. 30 residents had their windows blown out. That was scariest for us, too, as our windows face East, but they didn't blow out.
Walked down and drove to nearby Leonia to get more water as elderly neighbor was panicking as she was running out. The walk up w. a couple of gallons of water took a lot longer. We got service back, a few hours after that climb. Three other bldgs. in our complex were out until Election Day.
Glad to hear that your block escaped devastation. My sister, in Knollwood Beach in Huntington, whose home faces Northport Bay, had significant damage as water came into her home during the surge. Perfect storm: A Nor'Easter storm, strong winds, huge surge, and full moon. YIKES!
Put your photo in my Favorites.
May the weather be milder. Cheers!
