Much Ado About Irene

The Kitten, a Kitten and a Cat (Mowgli) inspect the damage.

Well, it's now Sunday afternoon and Irene has come and gone, leaving us relatively untouched.  A tree here and there has returned to the great organic cycle, and my grill was toppled in the high winds, but the storm surge wasn't much to talk about and we seem to have held up ok.

The renovation has left us a little vulnerable--no gutters and soft ground around the new parts mean water intrusion...and the dormers/roofing job created a bit of room for water around the chimney--as they need to install new flashing.

Irene turned about to be more hype than hurricane, but I suppose I'll take'em that way all the time.
