Some fool took her 3 kids out to view the storm and got her car crushed for it. Thankfully, no one got seriously hurt. It is somewhere under this tree.

Last pictures are of the school down the street from me and of the water between my street and the beach. In the last picture you can make out the sand dune at the end of the street.

I feel really bad for all the people who have had property destroyed and have been inconvenienced EXCEPT!!!!!
The dumb %^&^%$#@ who built the houses on Charlestown beach. I fished that beach when there were NONE. I always hated the fact that they were allowed to build right on the beach. I pray to GOD they are not allowed to rebuild.

Worse than that are the people who were not allowed to build so the cut out a section of the dunes so they could park their cars. Why the town and state allowed that absolutely dumbfounds me. |

Not even close...
1. Most of Nap's was not redeveloped.
2. This was what you expect from a Cat 1, landfalling hurricane in S. New England.... a 1938-type event will be ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE worse than this....
3. Kevin: They weren't allowed to make those spots, if I recall they did it, paid a fine and left them.... but I might be wrong.... |

Perhaps... I'm not positive... but, they were left AND the owners were allowed to use them for the purpose that they were prohibited from making them for. (That makes sense to me at least) In other words, prohibited, fined and then allow them to use them for parking even though the creation of the parking space was prohibited makes zero sense. I know one owner made a cut for his giant bus size RV and tried that but was shut down because of Charlestown RV regs. I still don't see why they were not required to fill the cuts back in after they were sited and fined so that the damage was repaired and the cuts through the dunes did not allow water to push sand into the roads. Oh well. I complained to the town when they were doing the last one...  |
