Fall Activity Interruption: Hurricane Sandy

As many of you may know the Northeast was greatly affected by Hurricane Sandy. All we could do was prepare ourselves the best we could with provisions, bottled water, non-perishable foods, lots of ice in the freezer, flashlights, candles etc. It's now a given that when bad weather hits us, most likely we'll lose power. Those who are lucky enough have generators. We are thankful that our house was intact, we lost power for about 27 hours.The temperature outside was rather mild, so we never felt cold inside our house. However, other people were not so lucky. Many people in our town, had major destruction to their houses; some just had their power restored yesterday. Some, as of today, still have no power. My heart is with those who lost everything!
A couple of days after the storm, I ventured out and snapped a few pictures around our neighborhood:

And if Sandy wasn't enough, there's a threat of a Northeaster for Wednesday into Thursday. Please pray for all of us!
