Question: Did Irene Change Your Holiday Plans?

Will you replace plans of BBQ and relaxation with cleanup and labor?

This weekend marks the unofficial end to summer, and is traditionally the last chance to enjoy outdoor activities like swimming and grilling before the cold weather rolls through.

But for some this weekend might be the first chance to spend an entire day cleaning up flooding or other damage left by Hurricane Irene. If you've been working this week and had damage in your home Sunday, you might be replacing your grilling utensils with a mop and broom.

How are your holiday weekend plans shaping up? Were they changed by damage left by Irene? Let us know in the comments section below.
