Hurricane Irene damage photos...

Gregg_M_Madden Aug 30, 2011 01:03 AM

I want to thank Jon R and everyone else who were thinking about us here on the East coast... Its been an eventful week in NYC... Earth quake and a hurricane... We are pretty used to criminal elements, horns, sirens, traffic, and bad drivers, LOL, but we hardly ever get to see mother nature at her strongest...

After pumping thousands of gallon of water out of my yard and a couple of inches out of my kitchen, I walked down the street with camera in hand...

The block next to mine...

Three blocks over... Yes, that is someone fishing in the middle of the street and he was actually catching stuff...


Its not every day you see a boat infront of a church...

I dont think he has to worry about anyone stealing it for a while...

Ya need scuba gear to wait at this bus stop...

This "lake" use to be a baseball field...

Good luck with the cleanup. After Hurricanes Ike and Rita, I know what you are going through. I couldn't even return home for 6 weeks with Rita and 4 weeks with Ike.
