Maura and Me
Here we are getting ready to head out and purvey the damage from the hurricane.; Me all waterproofed out
Here's me in all my anti-hurricane gear. Able to fight rain, wind, branches, acorns, chestnuts, ginkgo berries, whatever that Isabel wanted to throw at me.; Maura all waterproofed out
Here's Maura in all her anti-hurricane gear. Able to fight rain, wind, branches, acorns, chestnuts, ginkgo berries, whatever that Isabel wanted to throw at her.; 14th St. Just South of East Capitol
Here's a view down 14th St. NE. It's pretty dark, and you can't really see anything, but well, ok, that picture sucks. The S is for Sucks.; Uprooted!
Here's a tree that used to stand right across the street from my apartment on A St. We didn't see this happen, but it's still pretty cool.; Here's a donkey
While walking up 14th St, we saw this donkey, and I noticed that there was a South Korean flag on the right side of it's head, so I took a picture.; Another uprooted tree
Somewhere in NE. Probably like B St. or something. I'm not quite sure. We were hunting for 'action' from the Hurricane. By now, it's about 1:30 AM.; Another picture of the same tree
Here's a different image of the tree in the previous picture. Still pretty crazy stuff.; The New Honda Element
This Honda Element has the 'camouflage' option. I think they installed it wrong at the factory because it hangs off just a little too much. ; Just a view of the sidewalk
The winds and rain did quite a job littering the streets and sidewalks with pieces of trees, leaves, etc. ; My Car
Here's a picture of my car (too bad that tree didn't fall over). Branches all around my baby.; South Carolina and 10th St. SE
A tree that decided it didn't want to stand anymore. There were actually quite a few people out today looking at the effects of the hurricane.; Pennsylvania Avenue
Here's an enormous tree on Pennsylvania Avenue in South East that fell. You can see by the trees near it that it was a huge one. ; Here's a tree that almost hit a Px
This tree almost hit a pharmacy on 4th and East Capitol St.; Another uprootage
Somewhere in SE D.C. I'm not sure exactly where.; This is D St. SE
This entire street was police taped off so no vehicular traffic was allowed. Pretty crazy stuff.; Jesse sitting on a tree
The base was so nicely landscaped too. It's his birthday today.; Ahhh Push it
Contrary to JB's biggest dreams, he did not push this tree down. The wind did that, and he's just pretending. What a clown. A no-talent ass-clown.; Us in front of a car
This car got smooooooooooshed by the tree. If you look carefully, there are cables holding the parts of the tree together. Brilliant idea. If one branch falls, bring the whole damn thing down. Jennie, me and Z wearing the rugby and wind pants.; This little kid trying to move the tree
This kid was pulling on the roots of this tree trying to move out the way.; JB checking out the roots
Jesse trying to figure out just how the tree fell over. I mean, just look at the roots!; Smile Jesse
It's your birthday. Grab that root. Just like that little kid.; Z and Jennie
Here they are. Check out the sheer size of this tree. It's Ginormous!; Just missed the porsche
The tree on the left just missed the porsche. Lucky. Very lucky. Z and Jennie still checking out the tree.; One more tree
This is the street in the background of the some of the other pics.; This poor car
The car from a different angle.;
