Since Sandy reeked havoc over two months ago, I am still amazed by two things. First, and I know this may sound strange as I live at the beach, but the massive amount of displaced sand. There is still sand everywhere, roof tops, roads, and covering street signs. It resembles freshly fallen snow. And sadly a sight which I will not soon forget, that of all the personal belongings which are now trash. The piles yesterday’s treasures reach high in the sky and stretch for blocks in the many make shift landfills. It will be months, perhaps years before our beaches and towns are restore to their prior state a beauty.
