Wilma Update - Sunday Oct. 30

Good news! The power is back on. As of Sunday night, we have power again. Mimi and John Rozek report that the power is now on, although the air conditioning is not working yet. Here's their report:

The cooling towers on the roof were damaged--so no Air Conditioning until the repairs are complete. Don't know when. Weather is very comfortable, so this is not much of a problem. Cable is still not working. Aside from the hurricane, we are losing our tennis pro--Carlos. He has decided to take a job selling insurance. He is a big loss to those of us that enjoy tennis. His last day is tomorrow.

Thanks Mimi and John for the report. It's very helpful for those of us who are thinking of visiting.

Wilma Update - Friday Oct. 28, 2005

Still no power for the buildings, and no update from FPL as to when we might get power.

There's a good picture of our complex on the TCPalm website. Follow this link:

Wilma Update - Wednesday Oct. 26 2005

Here we go again. I have some news from Barbara today. Many of the units have water penetration due to the wind-driven rain. Units have been checked, and those with serious water penetration are being contacted. Many units are only a little damp, and owners are not being contacted if that is the case.
There is no power on yet, and there are some indications it may be as long as two or three weeks before it's back on.
There was damage to the landscaping, but not as severe as last year. The dunes seem to still be in place.
That's all I know for now. If anyone knows any more, or has pictures, please contact me
