Just spoke with a good friend of mine that still lives "at the shore" (we never used that terminology growing up) and he said that Bay Head and Mantoloking, two very nice old beach towns are still completely under water and what isnt under water is on fire due to a gas leak that they cannot shut down because the valves are under sand or water. I built about 15 homes on those beaches before I moved, they are all destroyed or washed away completely. Very sad.

Sorry to hear that. That must hurt.

I understand the waters are horribly contaminated with gasoline, diesel, etc. and people who stayed back are still being asked to evacuate due to risk of fire.
