Post Irene Damage and Experience

Power went out about 10:30 PM Saturday the 27th and came back on 7:30 PM Tuesday the 30th.  My wife has sleep apnia and uses a CPAC machine so she rented a motel room while the power was out.  I purchased a small generator which allowed us to save most of our perisable food.

A large tree down the street took out the power and all the neighbors got together and cut away enough of the tree to open the street.  I lost two trees on my property but there was no damage.  Bigest problem was picking up the broken limbs and trash left behind.  I removed about three bushels of trash from my pool.

It's now Thursday and so far no disasters this week.  Maybe it's over!!!
