Hurricane Charley is coming! You better "hunker down!"

 I am a day late posting this but better late than never.  Hard to believe that 10 years ago we were listening to Tom Terry say "you better hunker down!" Hurricane Charley was on its way, but the path looked like it would miss Downtown Orlando. 



 Boy, were they wrong with that weather report. When the electricity went out I realized (the hard way) that Charley turned course and the eye went directly over Downtown Orlando with winds gusting up to 135 mph. It sounded a freight train and I thought the roof was going to be ripped off the house.

 When it was over the devastation was amazing. I wanted to share a few photos that were taken the next morning walking down Washington Street towards Lake Eola and, around Downtown Orlando.
