Two things struck me while watching this. First, was how small and insignificant we are when the elements chose to remind us of their might and power. Second was seeing people back on the beach enjoying the day. Life truly goes on even after tragic events. Well done video and editing as always.

Back in the late 1970's my dad would park his ice cream truck there.he was only 1 of 2 people on all of Lee county with an ice cream truck back then.he was so unique that Lee county did not have any laws on the books pertaining to food vending trucks😊

Wow the last time I was out there Blind Pass was a bridge over sand. Glad to see it's open again! Can't believe how dirty the sand looks. It used to be blinding white like snow. Guessing it's all the Lake Okechobee water releases.

Very depressing to see Castaways and Lazy Flamingo wiped from the face of the planet. We had stayed there just a week before Ian hit. But it's good to see things getting back to normal.
