Hurricane Irene August 2011

     This is probably old news by now, but for those of you who have not seen the video footage of Hurricane Irene I took and especially for those of you who are from or are at least familiar with the Highland Falls area, this one's for you.  It has been several weeks now since Irene paid us an visit and we certainly felt her wrath.  The county is still reeling from the "shock and awe" and areas like the black dirt farms of Orange County will be feeling the financial repercussions for some time to come.  We just aren't accustomed to weather phenomena like this in SE New York.  So....that being said, take a look at Irene's fury here in Highland Falls earlier this month.
