Off the Grid
October 31, 2012
Because of
Hurricane Sandy
, Tikalon has been without
electrical power
since Monday, October 29, 2012, as has most of
New Jersey
. It may take a week before power is restored.
Sandy is a familiar version of the name, Sandra. Sandra is a principal character in my book,
Mother Wode
. I guess Sandra didn't like her character development!

Hurricane Sandy
has been called the
New York metropolitan area's
Katrina.
Will such storms become a
common occurrence
?
