Words fail, and so, sometimes, do photographs. So let’s leave this blank for this week, and remember that everything changes.

As many times as I attempt to verbalize the experience of this storm, words will only serve to trivialize what so many have been through. So, I would like to suspend all words except “thank you.” Thank you to neighbors who have worked together to clear fallen trees, thank you to the rescuers, thank you for government programs providing the funds to run helicopters and bulldozers, emergency shelters and water stations (our tax dollars at work), thank you to utility employees who have come to our rescue, restoring internet service, replacing broken power poles and restringing power lines, and thanks to all of you who simply care. And now, a moment of silence for the many, many human lives lost to the almighty power of wind and rain. ~K
