we had a hurricane on october 29th... mom took this...
here's me today standing next to a felled oak's roots...
before the hurricane, the tithonia had finally flowered, after reaching almost 20 ft tall, on the right...
i knew tithonia would get knocked down, so i brought in many flowers before the storm...
the painting is by one of my daughter's friends...
then the hurricane hit, took away our power for 11 days, and a few shingles from the roof...
we were so lucky... but the tithonia did fall....
we have a generator, so things were not so bad... but luna had that "omg, how long will this last" kind of look...
whereas colton was his ever sunny self...
a week after the hurricane, us still without power, we had a nor'easter...
and the snow melted beautifully the next day...
here's how the potager looked last weekend, after we got power back... soon i'll be stringing the lights!
