I tell you what the pictures do not do justice until you are in the middle of it all i spent the day in Punta gorda yesterday cleaning up a friends house ..Cutting trees down cleaning up yards and gettintg him into his house to get some stuff out. We just missed this storm at our house by about 15 miles, It was scary and something i do not wish to go through again.
