That guy could have a coffee table book of this guys quotes.
On another note, just to put how big this storm was. They are starting on the cleanup and recovery in SWFL, they are still flooding all along the St Johns. Amazing the amount of homes still under water.

If you stayed on a boat or on fort myers beach you were a fool. You had 24 hours to jump in a car and head over to Miami and sleep in the car.
But I am sure there was a lot of old poor people living in those trailers that didn’t have the means to evacuate.
My brother lives on his 36 foot trawler full time in Bimini basin in Cape Coral. 3 days before the hurricane He took his boat up above the Franklin locks up the caloosahatchee and got a slip in labell.
Than jumped in his van the Morning of the hurricane and drove over to west palm.
We were talking to our buddy who lives just off 41 near Estero a mile from the back bay and they hade neighbors who were in their attics because of high water.

That would be “Poke county” to a good number of the locals. lol
Polk county was actually the center of FL politics and economic power back in the day. Phosphate,Citrus and Cattle were THE economy here a few generation’s ago.
