Im prepared to board up my home in GB and head to Pensacola Saturday is nessecary. No reason to waste gas and patience trying to find a hotel in Texas. Might as well stay if you have a building well inland away from water thats sturdy and safe. You just gotta use alittle common sense and things will work themselves out.

That will answer my friends question. He was planning on leaving for Perdido Key, FL on Saturday for a week long vacation. He's got reservations at the BEAUTIFUL Eden. I hate to see them suffer any more damage. They are in the middle of rebuilding as it is. A beautiful deck is going up and outdoor pool and kiddie pool in the works. All the reconstruction throughout Escambia.... this can't be happening :cry:

Well, it's been said before. This is what happens when communities build directly on the water's edge. Over the next hundred years and beyond, those waterfront communities will be rebuilding several times over. The earth's forces have always been there before the condos went up and they will be there long after.

Hurricane Ivan did a number on the I-10 bridge in Escambia. That bridge is STILL not open to certain vehicles. I can't imagine what will be left if Dennis slams into it as a Cat 4 or 5!

No doubt.. you pay the price for living on the water, but it sucks.

You can't blame people for living in California when an earthquake hits.
You can't blame people for living in Nebraska during tornado season.

Some people live on the coast and stay clear of hurricanes for years. It sucks that this same area may be hit again!
