hurricane irene

a little storm named irene ruled our weekend. a hurricane means good surf so on friday we enjoyed a beautiful day out on long beach.

we stayed the night before returning early the next morning to the city to pack up a few necessities as we were under a mandatory evacuation order (1st ever in nyc history!) since the hudson river is our backyard.

we headed to higher ground to the apartment of very generous friends in brooklyn. william was a trooper in the many new environments.

luckily our neighborhood didn't have any major damage so we were able to return home sunday afternoon. we took a walk and while it was still quite windy it was good to be home and to see the sun.

goodbye irene.
