Come on, Irene

We came through Hurricane Irene just fine--didn't even lose power--but others in our neighborhood weren't so lucky. Below are some pictures of two trees that fell on the same block. 

 First tree. Luckily it fell right where a house had just been removed. 

 First tree. Different angle. 

 Second tree--a couple of houses up. No one was hurt.

Still a bit gusty today, so there may be more downed trees and power outages due to the rain-soaked ground. But for now, we're feeling pretty lucky.
