Our visitors are returning. Is there any surer sign we’re on the road to recovery? Makes me happy to see them in our convenience stores on the Cape, at the restaurants and businesses in town, and stocking up on groceries at the Pig. Talked to a snowbird this morning visiting ...

Every week we make a bit more progress towards returning back to something that resembles normal, and this week the big step forward was the reopening of the state park, T.H. Stone Memorial Park, which has been closed since the storm and giving birth to two break away islands. (Tampa ...

Everything takes longer after Michael. Everything. For example, I held an Open House this week and of the Realtors who came through, over half are still displaced. These independent contractors are working full time living out of suitcases, juggling appointments with clients, prospects, insurance adjusters, contractors, bankers, roofers and myriad ...

Our post-Michael recovery continues moving forward and all utilities have now been restored to the Cape, Indian Pass and C-30 Corridor.  Rental properties with minimal damage are trickling back onto the market. As I mentioned last week, businesses and some restaurants have reopened downtown. Admittedly we still look badly beaten ...

Our area is recovering slowly but surely and getting a little bit better each day. Power has been fully restored, and water was finally flowing to the Cape north of the rocks at Stumphole on Thursday. Most internet service in the area is working, although Mediacom is still struggling with ...

I’m still in Tallahassee but wanted to update you with the latest info for those of you not on Facebook: From Vince Bishop, Fire Chief, South Gulf County Volunteer Fire Dept., This is Vince on the North Side; We have 24 hr law enforcement patrols now to help keep the ...
