To: Restorer
Bok Tower is still there, like a beacon of hope. The windows have been damaged, and the grounds are devastated. They are looking for volunteer donations to help restore the grounds, and for people to help come clear out the trails.

Pictures from same exact vantage point, before and after Hurricane Charley:

That is just heartbreaking. I hope the oak grove behind the tower survived mostly intact.

Though I'm guessing the spiders above the reflecting pool didn't fare too well.
