I'm in Albany NY and we weathered well. Only saw one fallen tree, and there were some power lines down. But nothing like I've seen in other areas on the web.
Just been watching on TV this terrible storm.
I hope you people out there are all well.
A friend, 'vigor', emailed me an Online Link from the 'Daily Mail', one of the UK's highly respected & widely read Newspapers. The 'mail Online', contained lots of pictures of the ''Hurricane Sandy's'' aftermath. It was a real devastation by the Mighty force of nature!
- My condolence to all those whose loved ones perished in this incident.
- My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the victims of this Hurricane, who have lost their homes and other properties. And indeed to all the people of America! Although we are physically miles apart, yet we are united as a human family. We therefore understand and feel the pains you are going through right now.
- Everything, we do know, happens for a purpose and for our own goodness, although this goodness may not be obvious to us at the moment. The timing is GOD'S! HE sends hardships on us in order to test us (& harden us), so that in the end HE may Bless us with GOOD THINGS. When HE closes one door, HE opens another one. The beauty of it all is that, HE cannot give us a test beyond our ability to endure, and HE keeps guiding us throughout the testing period! So keep your hopes high, your tears will be wiped!
We have a townhouse on the south shore of Long Island. We just finally heard from the tenant. Everything is fine, no damage except a fallen tree in the front yard that fell away from the house. Still no power there though. It'll mean it will be a better market to sell it in the spring according our plans.
The tenant however, his ex-wife lives in his old house a few miles away, well he had 9 feet of water on the first floor of his house. He said there is furniture floating around.

'' It will mean it will be A BETTER MARKET TO SELL it in the spring according to our plans.'' Extract from Paul's quote above. - That's precisely what I meant in my post. That everything happens for a purpose, and works for our own 'good', although this 'goodness' may not be obvious at the moment. BUT for Paul's case, above, this 'goodness' (better market to sell), has been INSTANTLY REALIZED. For him, like many others, I presume, the Hurricane has been a 'Blessing in disguise'.

You mean like how they can't promote a show promoting nothing but stupidity for the sake of stupidity? Not only was it cancelled by the networks, it was cancelled by nature too now. NO MORE JERSEY SHORE! Yay!

That's one way to get a water bed I suppose.
Cthulhu for president! Why settle for the lesser evil?

And that could mean 'Business' for the water bed sellers, I suppose?

Water bed repair and fixation. "Are you tired of your bed floating away? Come on down to Pete's house of water beds! We've got the finest selection looted from all over New York! Sealy, Serta..."

Just got power back this morning after 6 days in the dark. Having natural gas, I had heat and hot water and my neighbor ran a line from his generator to my furnace so I was lucky. Alot of areas look like warzones out here especially the shore. This is when you realize mother nature is in charge

Mother nature has always been in charge! 'HE' sets the rules to which everyone must abide, believers & non believers alike!' A neighbor in need is A neighbor indeed!'. Thus the golden rule, '' What I want for myself I want for others also''....aka "Love your neighbor as you love yourself''.
"The Serenity Prayer" . . . God grant me the serenity to accept stupid people , the courage to not waste my time and energy on them , and the wisdom to know that I cannot fix STUPID .
