Nikon Wednesday 2011: #35

<p>To Paul Murphy: Over a decade ago, I used to live in New Jersey. One day, a friend told me that he was stuck in traffic on a local road, which I also used daily during my commute to work. There was a rainstorm and all of a sudden, a big tree fell onto a car that was 3 or 4 cars ahead of him and killed the driver instantly. He was still in shock when he told me the story a few hours later.</p>

<p>So that woman standing on the down tree should be happy that she is still alive. She could have been inside the car at the wrong time.</p>

<p>Incidentally, another friend in New Jersey told me that where I used to live was within the evacuation zone last weekend during Irene's visit.</p>

<p>Shun, you're correct and she had just that attitude. That's why she got up on the tree and was making fun of the whole thing. I think the saddest part was not that the vehicle was destroyed but just before she arrived and I got there to take the photo, there were people taking things out of the car.... Now that's sad.<br>

Oh, and the woman was great about me taking photos, she took my card and said... " just in case I need photos for the insurance..."<br>

I'm from Rhode Island originally and it's the people in Vermont that I'm thinking of. My friends in New Hampshire are okay... Sigh! Thank goodness. <br>
