As everyone knows, Hurricane Irene hit the East Coast of the US last week, bringing devastation to several states and misery to millions of people, including us. We lost power for 4 days and it was like living in the Middle Ages. Luckily, that’s all we lost, unlike some people who lost everything in the storm.
Cleanup and reconstruction are on their way, and normalcy will come back little by little, but one thing we’ll never learn is to stop developing and building directly on the shore. Yes, it’s a wonderful location and whoever can afford it obviously wants to live there, but it’s gonna be more and more costly to rebuild and it’s also not fair that taxpayers’ money is used to help these people and communities repeat the same mistakes of the past.
At any rate, some incredible before/after pictures of the devastation:
