I'd seen many of those, but the visual impact is tremendous, particularly in the Crystal Beach/Gilchrist area.

Thanks for posting the link, and please be assured of our collective thoughts & prayers for those affected.

Bonny Blue, thank you for posting the photos. They are truly awesome, some of them astonishing, almost beyond belief.


Respectfully,
Leland

When I was a kid we used to vacation on Crystal Beach. This is heartbreaking.
