Here's our "best of" links on Hurricane Charley, in rough chronological order. It has inspired me to try to get my old wrecker started ( to use as a boom truck ) and move my 8KW welder/generator to where I can repair it and get ready for the next storm.

Thanks, Backhoe.

I have been looking for any information, reports, and/or pictures of the aftermath/damage to Sannibel Island and Captiva without any luck.

If any one knows of a link please post it, thanks.

Lots of "survivor" stories in today's St. Pete Times.

Here's an interesting one I was just reading about Winter Park.

Does anyone have any info on Sabal Springs (Coconut Palm Ct.), or the Lions Club in Punta Gorda?

I don't trust what the media is telling us. Why has FEMA closed off the area and not let anybody in? Could it be that more than 15 or 16 were killed and this is being hushed up? Why kick out the local people and let the outsiders take control of the situation.

 Refugees from '04 storm may be hit again -- Fourteen months after Hurricane Charley devastated this Gulf Coast town, hundreds of people still are living in row after row of government-owned mobile homes that were supposed to be temporary housing. Many of the residents of "FEMA Village" -- the temporary community of 1,600 residents living in 500 mobile homes provided by the federal agency -- regarded the approaching storm Thursday with the stoicism of those who have lost everything already.
