If you walk up my sister's driveway it is just a mess, smaller trees are laying all over the area. The neighbors have gone to the town and been told that there is nothing that can be done to stop this because it is private property.

The devastation is quite visible from our place on the west side of the bay. One dry & very windy day in Sept. we could see dust swirling on the hillside, and I've noticed that at night you can now see the headlights of cars travelling north on Rt. 28. Hope the heavy rains we're supposed to get on the east coast don't create a mudslide. I also hope that someone clears all the debris. It looks like a natural disaster occurred rather than a planned logging job.
