In 2012 Hurricane Sandy swept many cars that were parked along the New York City shoreline out to sea, many never to be found again. This one was washed into a river that connects to the ocean. And so if you wait for the low tide, walk long and far and don't mind the mud, you can find it. It has seemingly laid undisturbed here forgotten for the past 8 years.

Disintegrating from salt water exposure and filled with silt it is a reminder of an event many have already forgotten. I am tempted to return with tools, open the door, and look inside the glove box and center console for potential artifacts that may have survived.
 

That sure go's without saying something bad happened at a moment in the past. I saw a show were someone discovered an old artifact of some kind in Alaska that tied to the big earthquake of 1964.
 

I would have rooted through that before I took pics
 

Wow, its incredible when one considers the force that is Mother Nature. I lived through Hurricane Charlie in Florida (2003) and I was simply in awe by the sheer power of the event, but the destruction too...
