I was just in Captiva late July. There is still a lot to clean up from Ian still. Thank GOD this new one Idalia is gonna spare San/Cap area from most of winds and surge this time. I am hoping they only get some rain and thats it!😎

Looks like we're mostly out of harm's way this time around. Fingers crossed.
