Punta Gorda & Port Charlotte are going to be rebuilding for a few more years.
The Holiday Inn that was on the river has finally been leveled, to make room
for what ever they intend to replace it. I hope it's another Holiday Inn,
they need a medium price hotel in that area. Some of the other local businesses
are still trying to get reorganized after 14 months. Its tough for some of them.

Whats great about this area, they don't sit back and complain (much) with
their hand out, like other areas that won't be mentioned.
