Island Dunes Update

Some first-hand news about Island Dunes!!
The following information came from an email from Sue Brown:

We live in Oceanside 1, #1210. This a.m. I talked to Linda Crane (a fellow tennis player) who along with her husband rode out the storm. they live on the 8th floor several condos south. (not sure which one) She walked up the beach to Island Dunes and gave me a live report. Our shutters were closed; however there were a few condos with shutters off the track. She could not see any broken glass nor curtains or blinds blowing so she assumed that the windows were intact. One of our swimming pools is completely filled with sand; only ladder is showing. She said that the exercise room is now a "dune". meaning that it is filled with sand.

Her comments while lying on her closet floor during the hurricane: intellectually she knew the building was swaying but when she heard her hangers clanging and saw her clothes swaying she got frightened. Plus she almost became seasick. When the eye came over, she and her husband walked outside to get some air. She saw a huge wave crash in the back of the building and then continue right through to the front. She said she probably wouldn't do it again. I also believe she took photos.
