Post-Hurricane Irene

We survived Hurricane, um correction, Tropical Storm Irene!  We were on the rainy side of the storm instead of the windy side-sorry Eastern Connecticut and elsewhere.  Not sure how much rain we got as we haven't seen the news since Sunday (our cable was restored Tuesday evening and power was restored at one o'clock this morning), but the last I heard a town close to us had over eight inches of rain-that's over two month's worth of rain in less than a day.  We luckily did not have any collateral damage other than a few, manageable tree limbs down and about an inch of water in the basement. And leaves everywhere!  Here are some pictures we took over the course of the last couple of days.  I'll post a couple of videos later.  On a side note I just heard Ross make a startled noise out back-bet he just stepped in a puddle of water again!

  1. To anyone looking for the pictures, they were hosted on a site called slide.com that has closed shop. Too bad you missed them, as they were the best pictures ever taken!
