Gary,
As well you might know, Venice is a fortress compared to P.E.
If Venice has been laid to waste, you can take it to the bank that P.E. ain't even there, maybe even including the lighthouse... The surge alone would have consumed the marina and 3 - 4 hours of 130+ winds could easily seal the deal.
The hardest of the hard core "Aw, hell I've seen my share of hurricanes and it ain't no big deal, so I'm stickin' it out" folks are those in south Florida and South Louisiana. Well, Katrina may have well thinned out their ranks & those left will be imparted with new thinking when the next hurricane comes their way.
Andrew changed my way of thinking to some degree in '92, but Katrina has made a believer of me. 200 miles inland into Texas is looking better than ever. All I have to do is survive the rest of this season...
Da' Judge, Vic, and André will do a fly over tomorrow and be taking pictures. As soon as I have those images on hard disk I'll be posting them up. Getting ready to make a separate directory & html index for the documentation.
Br,
Patrick
