We dodged a bullet around here. A few branches down, etc. but the worst thing we had to face was cabin fever. The power never even went out.
We are thankful.
But from this vantage point it is easy to forget that Hurricane Sandy has caused real devestation elsewhere. Manhatten without electricity, Atlantic City underwater, Haiti devestated.
Nearly 100 people lost their lives because of the storm. The death toll is expected to rise.
People are going to need help.
So let's breathe a sigh of relief, hug our loved ones tight, and get to work. I am not sure what most of can do -- pray, raise funds, send supplies. Perhaps join a mission trip bringing hope to the damaged areas, once those are organized. I know we can all help somehow.
How did you fare in the storm?
This is my 30th post for the October Ultimate Blog Challenge. One to go!
