Dennis - damage reports & requests - merged to this thread

Re: Hey Mom!!,

The coffee at Hibiscus, in Grayton, has some of the best coffee around, but I guess that is another thread.

And that is what I am up to do this morning as our troop of family from nashville, to atlanta and even from Venezula are united ***Beach JAVA BOUND...come see us there!

Re: Dennis - damage reports

I have heard from a neighbor that said Seagrove did great. And for Snapper Grabber, I am guessing the Grove did well, too. I have talked with one neighbor and we still have power.

We are leaving to come back first thing in the morning - afraid if we leave tonight, we may not be able to get across the bridges.

Anyone know the bridge situation?

Still trying to get in touch with my friend on Adair Lane - anyone know how that area is on the bay?

Eastern Shores Building #1 (Smaller Buiilding) has been condemned. First Floor units floors have fallen to the ground about 5 feet to the ground.

Eastern Shores Condominiums building #1 has been condemned. first floor units floor has dropped 5 feet to the ground.

We are scheduled for a family reunion at Bella Vita on Blue Mountain Beach beginning on the 24th and have family coming in from four states. Any word on the condition of the building?

I read that Old 98 was closed, is it the whole road or just washed out sections. We have a condo at Geronimo and Old 98 (about 3/4 mile from Silver Sands Outlet) at the Beach House Condominiums and are trying to get an idea of how they fared. Last year with Ivan the pool fell onto the beach and our unit is in one of the buildings closest to the beach so we are keeping our fingers crossed. If anyone has any info on it or the area, or if that section of road is open it would be greatly appreciated.

SJ: As many people are experiencing, I am unable to get in touch with our rental company and would love to find out how the Cottages at Camp Creek faired. ANY info would be greatly appreciated!!! We are due to come down This Saturaday and would like to know if alternate plans are necessary.

Allirow, just found a photo with your 3rd floor and roof top

Yep, that's us. At least I know we're standing, but woah does that lake look high from a distance. Man, I've just gotta get down there to see what's up. Need to find a sitter first as my 3 kids are babies...probably not the best environment there for them.

Can't thank you enough SJ!

Best wishes,
Allison

Could someone please tell me about the Legends in Santa Rosa. Suppose to be there Thursday the 14th. Can someone advise on beach area, pool, condition, general appearance, electric on and if we could enjoy by coming at that time. Thank anyone very much if could advise.

Attn Owners, how many of you were contacted by your rental agencies to board up your houses, condos, etc?...If you were or weren't, who were your agencies?...Best of luck to all owners down here...

Does anyone know how Dunes of Seagrove & beach there held up?

Bella Vita is fine.

I read that Old 98 was closed, is it the whole road or just washed out sections.

Yesterday, the Sheriff's Office had Old 98 closed off beginning on the east side of Capt Dave's on the Gulf (which is living up to its name) and how far east, I do not know. That area around the Crab Trap faired better than after Ivan, but I am sure it doesn't look pretty from the beach. Power was out yesterday. My guess, just a good guess is that it is NOT closed all the way to Geronimo St. However, if your pool fell into the Gulf after Ivan, I would be a little concerned about the potential damage. You never know, I did not expect Pompano Joes to still have a parking lot, which it lost with Ivan, but it is still there. Maybe there is nothing holding up the asphalt :idontno: . I, as well as many others on this board, will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Thank you, I just found this site and, like many others, really appreciate you for being the eyes for so many of us who look forward to shareing a little bit of the paradise you live in. My heart goes out to those who have suffered loss.

Camp Creek Kid has some excellent reporting from that end. I have not been further east than One Seagrove Place, and am headed out of town today.
