Tree down

Driving home, trying to meet PSE&G to fix a broken heater in anticipation of a cold weekend, found a tree down on Ridge Road, blocking traffic. The Rev. John Maltby, a member of the Monmouth Junction First Aid Squad, was out with the squad and the fire department securing the area. A tree had fallen in the parking lot of Theo’s Family Restaurant, taken down by the heavy winds and rain this afternoon, nblocking the road and apparently doing some minor damage to a nearby house.

Mother Nature was in a bad mood today I guess.
