Oh No! - October Snow!

October 31, 2011

Northern New Jersey, home of Tikalon, experienced a major snow storm on Saturday, October 29, 2011. The snow was wet and heavy, and trees still had most of their leaves; so, there were many fallen trees and tree limbs. These took down power lines, so we were without power from 2:45 PM Saturday until 8:30 PM Monday.

The following photograph of our backyard is representative of most homes in our area.
