Subject: Jersey shore video–Sandy+3months
3 months ago, Sandy rocked our lives.
This essay is a moving reflection on the character of the Jersey shore and the prospects for restoration. People who are committed, or not… A recognition that it will not be the same. A hope that it will not become “anyplace USA”.
“On paper it does not make any sense, but in our hearts we know it does.”
