Piles

This is just a quick update on the Hurricane Matthew cleanup efforts. The tree and yard debris is being piled up in the North Beach parking lot. It looks like this. 

 A closer view. 


The pile is about 20' tall and 600' long and contains an estimated 15,000 cubic yards of debris. 

You would think this would be most of the debris on the island. It only represents what was easy to remove and trees that were laying on houses. When you walk around the island you see all the trees in back yards or laying in yards no affecting streets or utilities. Sometime this week they are bringing in a large mulching machine and they will grind up the pile. I want to see the machine that will chew this thing up. 


Every day we are out and about on the island we realize and appreciate how fortunate we were to have virtually no damage.
