I've been following along your posts, I can recall quite a few years back going to the library for internet access too.
I thought you were near North Brunswick, but someone mentioned Somerville, I used to live close by in Basking Ridge and liked to shop the Bridgewater Common mall, have a cold one at Fridays in Somerville, watch the game sometimes, over by the circle where 206 heads south to Princeton and or that well known publisher McGraw-Hill.
Its hard to imagine those areas so adversely effected, must have been wind damage. I can understand the situation at the shore, having lived in Manasquan, my old house is probably now gone at 127 1st St.
What you mention with the farmers and being helpful is something that still happens around here, and was something that stood out prominently to me just a few years ago while working with my long time farmer/friend because even if they're not all that fond of each other, they always help each other, find a way, could be as simple as pulling out a stuck tractor or doing a harvest like when the large dairy lost a combine to fire during harvest. Its always been like that, sometimes its a rental, his equipment is closer to the fields, hiring out a truck, it is something to admire in the times we live now. As a young kid I can recall my father firing up the D7 caterpillar to pull out a stuck tractor during spring planting/tillage, same farmer came over when he buried the 4000 ford on the first pass of cutting in one of our hay fields, father had to be at work, not only did he cut, he raked and baled, small field but nonetheless, and the fine details of $ worked out later, work was done first. You hit the nail on the head all right by bringing that up.
Hope you and yours get back to some "normalcy" soon, take care now !!! :)

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Hydraulics - The Basics - by Curtis Von Fange. Hydraulics was one of the greatest inventions for helping man compound the work he can do. It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
