I believe that inlet was a cut through from an earlier hurricane.
We used to just ride our bicycles there from the place we were staying.
Doubt we will be going back there anytime real soon. Doc Ford's on Sanibel reportedly sustained only minor damage, but still, no sense having a restaurant open if there is no one able to go there to eat. Darn shame as this was one of Connie's favorite eateries.
What a mess.... And I was just thinking a couple of weeks ago that Florida was going to be skating by this year without any hurricanes threatening.
