My family and many others are suffering still. Post depression is a big problem. Everything is gone and destruction lays everywhere. How could you not be depressed living in only one room or an RV. Some places are condemned and people are told to leave, where? Many have lost their jobs, even my nephew and friend. My friend lives only in his bedroom. That's all that is left. Five miles away is Tyndall Air force base. They recorded 200 mile an hour winds that peaked at 250 for over 15 minutes. Yet they said it was only a category 4. Why? They said something about of a no deduction for the home owners if it was a cat.5. It would have been a big hit to the insurance industry. Big money talks. Before:
After:
My in laws that are in their mid 80's live in this RV on loan to them. The white RV with the 3 vehicles; White, red ,white.
A street level view.
For repair work they are being priced gouged. My nephew had a new roof put on 2 years ago for $12,000, now they want $45,000. The whether people stayed in Panama City Beach, 30 miles from this street. This is the damage there. Just a few roof shingles. Hardly a soul on the beach. Flying was great at under 400 ft. with no tourist helicopters.
It's not over for these people yet. Yes, they are forgotten.
