One of the first things that happened during the morning was our neighbors Locust Tree cracked off at the top... we were taking the dog out and we heard a strange sound like plastic rolling across pavement, turns out it was the tree cracking!
Next.. out the kitchen window I notice my beautiful double blossom Rose of Sharon is prone to the ground.. WAH..
the RAIN starts
Bored I work on and complete a ribbon scarf I had started!
A large maple branch has broken .. it's hanging in this photo to the left of our little stage!
Between the two climbing toys is a new oak, its top was bent in the winter by a large tree nearby, the oak is trying to retain its stamina.. when IRENE turns it around and now it's growing in a different direction!
The Next Morning we venture out for a walk.. this is looking south on Hope St.
Dinner the first night.. NO POWER..
The Second day no power I decide to teach myself a new stitch! YEAH it's exaggerated but it worked!
some of the debris in front
Dinner the second night! No Power again
The second day it's safer to drive..this is the entrance to our local state park, the trees are broken everywhere!
My camera card is full these are the last two photos i could fit, and with no power I couldn't recharge! These are two gorgeous sailboats brushed up onto the shore wall.. they are laying on their sides.
And Finally debris on the road that washed up and over this sea wall! Well it was interesting but I'd rather not do it all again
SO KATIA.. GO AWAY!
