Hurricane Sandy rears its ugly head over New York Harbor. More or less vicious than bad-tempered, 12-year old Siamese cat Sandy? News at 11. |
In truth, this storm messed up the shore points and NYC pretty bad, which is a real shame. Luckily, the monster-themed storm did not turn out to be as destructive as originally projected.

"Meterologists": 99% wrong, 1% right |
Back on the Occupy site, we enjoyed just a bit of basement water and acute power outages of only a few seconds each. We are very thankful that the only real inconvenience was that I moved every tool and piece of lumber into basement Saturday for the bank appraisal, only to find out after the appraiser left, that there was a hurricane coming. So I spent the whole day moving everything up to higher ground considering we have the potential to get a little water in the basement on hurricane occasions. After all, South Philly is built on a swamp. What were they thinking??
Anyway, we got lucky. Let's take a moment to reflect:
Saturday night was our first official night in the new master bedroom. With the Hurricane coming the next morning, I was thinking about why I had renovated this room in the first place: Hurricane Irene.

I know what you're thinking: with that wallpaper, I should be sending Irene a thank you letter. Regardless, I am thankful that in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, the just-finished bedroom remained intact.
