A few photos

Around the neighborhood:

The church in our neighborhood had some roof damage and the cross fell over at the top of the steeple.  Not sure what other damage might have happened inside because of the roof damage.

PC's clinic where I work:
Power to the clinic is back on as of mid-day today.  Now that C and PC have had a second, closer look at the wall, they've discovered that the damage is more extensive than they first thought.  It seems that the pressure inside slid the wall along with the very large, very heavy piece of exercise equipment (white machine) about 3-6 inches towards the middle of the room!  The wall moved back to its original position but left much damage to the wall itself that may mean replacing it.  The exercise machine is 3 inches out of place which is amazing.  C and PC are over there now trying to do repairs so that PC can open on Monday.  The insurance company has advised him to make whatever repairs he can make in order to open his doors for business.  As you can see, all of the ceiling tiles and insulation need to go back up.  However, they need to rig up a support for them in order to keep them up.  On the other side of the wall is an empty space that has not been built out yet. 

Downed power lines along Highway 3.

Of course photos can't do it all justice.  I need to get out and get more photos around the neighborhood so you can see the amazing piles of debris people are cleaning up and setting on the curb.  I'll try to do that tomorrow.
