Sandy Comes to Visit

The outer edges of Hurricane Sandy came to northern Massachusetts yesterday.  We had pretty good winds from Monday mid-morning through 9 or 10PM, and a fair amount of rain.  For the most part we came through fine, but about 15% of Acton is out of power including our new place.   No problem for now since we're not in residence.

We did lose one big tree - but it went in just the right direction to cause minimal damage...

White shed is ours - missed by a couple feet.  Red barn is the neighbor's.

Snapped off about a dozen feet up.  Had been wondering if the tree was healthy (lower branches looked dead). 

Just managed to clip one pane in the barn window, and hurt the trailer below a bit.
