Whilst much ot the Eastern Seaboard were counting the cost and beginning the clear up, Herb and Ida Weinmann returned to their home following the evacuation to discover the storm had left them a new garage, a 20ft yacht and a wrought iron patio set. Herb explained "the garage is roughly where I'd have erected it anyway, it just needs a little repairing, the yacht is great - we haven't been sailing for years, we're gonna need a tow bar on the pickup now!" Ida added "Just when we thought it couldn't get any better we went round to the yard to find the new table and chairs - it's like christmas - except we had a barbeque out in the garden yesterday. I had been worried as in the rush to evacuate I left the washing out on the line. Needless to say, it'll need washing again with all the rain."
