I’m sorry if I’ve missed this, but was this place your home?
A night of heroes, but hell for some who stayed

All my childhood summers were spent at Crystal Beach, and my kids also spent their summers there.
It is just stunning, I did not expect there to be nothing left. I assumed damage, as always, but not this, maybe I was just in denial.
There are so many small businesses too, a little water-park, restaurants, souvenir stores.
Just horrible.
