As I was capturing the aftermath of Winter Storm Nika today along a closed stretch of N. Valley Rd. in Paoli, Pa., a woman walked out. Merline Edwards was wondering what I was up to. I introduced myself as a freelance photojournalist who was documenting the damage around the neighborhood . But when she told me about some of what she had gone through, I knew I had to capture her story. I was lucky enough to be able to go inside and speak with Ms. Edwards. Edwards and her husband had lost power for the past 4-5 days but had gotten it back this morning. The storm, however, did damage her Chester County home. After falling tree limbs had caused a hole in her bedroom ceiling (and dented her car, too), they decided to sleep in their living room. Edwards has been calling Tredyffrin Township and PECO to figure out how they can help her and remove the broken limbs in her property. According to Edwards, the township workers stopped near her home, looked, and drove away. She expressed confusion over who was responsible for dealing with the fallen tree limbs.Â
But the storm also presented other problems. Her husband has sleep apnea and relies on a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine at night. (the machine is shown at Edwards's side). When they lost power during the storm, the machine couldn't run. But he was resourceful. He powered the machine using a portable generator and a car battery and was able to get by.
As I left the house, I was touched that a stranger would welcome me into her home and share her experiences. Thank you, Merline, for sharing your story with me. I hope that someone can read this article and get you the help you need.
"The Garth", Ernest Zantzinger House Strafford, Tredyffrin Township, Chester County, PA 1904
In 1904 Wilson Eyre designed the gardens and outbuildings of "The Garth" which had recently been purchased by Ernest Zantzinger. Pictured here is the stable building.
From "The Garth," The new surroundings to an old house at Strafford, Penna. by John Cordis Baker:
"The stable is new and built of frame, plastered and whitewashed to match the house. At one end is the laundry, and thence a pergola extends a distance of fifty feet and connects with a minor building comprising a toolhouse and woodshed. At each end of the pergola, in the corners of the buildings, are recesses which play the part of shelters or summer houses. These are important in connecting the stable and its balancing buildings with the house."
