TAKOMA PARK, MD - AUGUST 28: Neighbors on the 900 block of Erie Ave. in Takoma Park, enjoy a neighborhood post-hurricane BBQ. Many of them have lived next to each other for more than 10 years and are getting acquainted because there is no electricity in their homes. They brought out a picnic bench, grill and lots of food from the fridges than might otherwise go bad. The word from Pepco is that power might be off for a few days. (Photo by Sarah L.
