This sampling of photos were taken near the water and back a few blocks. They bear a noticeable similarity. Trees that bear the black/brown leaves killed by the salt in the hurricane air, now are half April's yellow green with new leaves, The little cherry tree, on the cover, is a beautiful cherry pink and it grows only a few yards from the corner of North St. where it took the full force of the storm. There is new green growth on Mechanic St. and in the yards dogwood begins to bloom.
