Four-Years Ago (09-November-2012) — New Jersey

Eleven days post Hurricane Sandy. Electricity had been restored and I was finally able to cook a meal in the house again. Ramen Noodle Soup with Beef and Red Onion. Prior to this I had been cooking by propane in my RV (which was running low because I had been running the generator to charge neighbors cell phones). Image taken with a Leica V-Lux 30 camera (ISO 320, 4.3 mm, f/3.3, 1/60 sec).
