Drive to Key West

We drove the short distance to Key West and were surprised by the destruction and uninhabitable portions of large stretches of land on the way. Debris fields greeted us on both sides of US-1 and destroyed houses, decks and boat slips were everywhere to be seen.

Beaches where the wind forced the sand so high they were still off limits to visitors.

An RV Park completely leveled

And roads still being worked on all up and down US-1

And yet, some areas look as if nothing ever happened

and the Key Deer, an endangered species, are back to normal as well
