Oh what can I say, April is a strange month. Just a little over a week ago it looked like this after a huge snow storm...
The heavy, wet, snow snapped trees in half, ripped off branches, and left us without power for half a day (and left us with a whole lotta shoveling to do.)
And now here we are today with our nor'easter (this picture taken several hours after high tide just as things are starting to calm down a bit)...
We've had 50mph wind gust, lots of rain, extra high tides and consequently lots of flooding. We took a quick ride out to see the ocean, but had to be content with a far off view as every road by the ocean was underwater and therefore...closed. What we did see of the ocean was amazing though, huge walls of white churning water--incredible!
What a crazy, crazy month so far! One can only wonder...what's next? Warm weather and lots of sun? Now wouldn't that be nice!
