Calm Before The Storm


With the storm headed our way, husband and I decided to head out to the beach to get some photos. Weather not too bad yet, husband made the usual preps today. Took the umbrellas down and stored them for the winter, took all hanging plants down, and he cleaned leaves out of the gutters in anticipation of the heavy rain we are supposed to get.






                               As you can see the surf was getting a bit rough and the
                              wind was picking up, but there wasn't too much rain yet


                                                      Boardwalk pretty deserted


                              This photo was just for fun, loved the way the lights looked on the statue

 They are saying "Sandy" should make landfall sometime on Monday night but we will begin to feel the effects by tomorrow because this is a massive, slow moving storm. Because of it's size it's going to effect a lot of people on the east coast. We have done what we can do, now we just wait.

I'm so sorry. It's hard to wait and see, knowing what is coming. I can "feel" your photos. Praying for you and everyone in line of the storm.
