Wow! It's going to take a long time to recover from that.

Wow! So amazing to watch the power of nature and then think about how we humans think we can somehow change it.

Sad thing is that was bound to happen given the right storm.

The mandatory evacuation order for SW FL did not happen until Tuesday night. People did not have enough time to get out.
The storm track was for Tampa. We had 3 hurricanes in Naples in our 24 years there. Never a hurricane like Ian. Still waiting to hear from friends.

Default Very sad 😞

We lived in Fort Myers for years. Went through many hurricanes. Charlie was bad. Nothing like this. Saw a graphic yesterday that showed how Charlie would fit inside of Ian’s eye. Unbelievable!
