Frankenstorm Sandy...


Pitch black Lower East Side of Manhattan and flooded Williamsburg
The last few days have been horrific here on the East Coast.  I was lucky to be safe with friends bunked up in Chelsea during her wrath and had no serious damage.  Unfortunately, many people I know and thousands more weren't as lucky.  Walking around New York is heart breaking right now.  All of the southern part of the island is without power, people are walking/sitting in traffic for hours in order to get to work, visitors are stranded, and young kids everywhere were deprived of their favorite holiday of the year.  This doesn't even compare to the damage throughout New Jersey and other places on Sandra-D's direct path.  In times like this when we need to come together, and keep those sprits high!  One easy way to do it is to donate or volunteer.  Check out the American Red Cross for the disaster relief information or visit Time Out New York to find other available opportunities.  Hope everyone is staying safe... I <3 NY!
