Normandy Beach, NJ: Before and After Sandy

As a kid, I spend my summers on 7th Street in Normandy Beach on the Jersey Shore.  My grandfather built a house there in the forties, and my mom spent her youth there as well. We no longer own the house there. The house appears to be still standing after Hurricane Freak Hybrid Perfect Super Storm Sandy (a 'hundred year storm' that the Governor of NJ commented now occurs every year) but there is a lot of sand in the road. Probably a lot of water damage.  Just north of 7th Street, the damage is much worse.  Notice the boat in the parking lot of the Catholic church (the building with the green roof)
