Little Wonqueak Harbor was filled with storm surge and waves during the January 10 storm. The photo at the top of this post shows John Renwick’s much-photographed fishing shacks after the storm. John sent the picture below of the remains of his wharf.

That was where my little wharf sat across the road from my house. My boat was on the mooring in Bunkers Harbor. I spent 2 hours trying to save John Temple’s wharf and floats there. We were successful, but after 2 hours I was soaked to the bone. Prying the floats away from the wharf in the high of the storm was a chore. It took 3 men and a lot of 2 by 6s. 

His wharf is on the way toward being back and useful. Here is a photo Pauline took yesterday.
