Oat Hill Lake after Hurricane Juan
Lorne Avenue where I live wasn't too badly affected by the storm, but the woods on the other side of the lake suffered extensive damage.
As I only returned home one week after the storm, a lot of the clean up was already done by the time I was able to take pictures. They were all taken in the afternoon of October 6, 2003.
Lorne Avenue
Lorne Avenue is on the Western side of the lake below a small hill.

<-- Left Picture These trees weren't quite totally uprooted, but just ended up leaning to the side
Right Picture --> From the 4 trees in this group only half of them survived

<-- Left Picture I was talking to this neighbour on Lorne Avenue who lost his 27 year, over 40 feet tall blue spruce tree to the storm. He was very pleased that I was able to take a picture of him with the treestump.
Right Picture --> The face drawn on the tree stump expresses the owner's sentiments quite clearly.
