Dennis took us through Fort Myers on our way home from the beach on Thursday.
These homes are actually on Bonita Beach. The first level is for parking and storage and not a livable space. I can understand why.
This home still had some furniture inside and even a recliner outside.
The sand was everywhere!
The trees across the street from the beach side were completely bare. A lot of sand and refuse among the trees that weren't there last year. We even saw a dumpster in the midst of it.
On to Fort Myers where trees were down.
Sand and rubbish piles were everywhere.
Concrete piles are a common sight.
There are hotels/condos or vacation rentals everywhere in this city and not a one was open. All were closed with many windows boarded up.
Mountains of sand.
The power of wind and water is incredible!
Nothing was open. No restaurants, hotels, churches, nothing. Every building was damaged. I'm sure this cleanup makes things look so much better than they were five months earlier. Still, so much work to be done.
