St Pete Beach, FL just last week. Willy’s, Toasted Monkey and so many others closed maybe for good? I hear this goes all the way up to Madeira Beach and beyond. Our 3rd floor unit had so much water blown in all the flooring and a lot of the walls have to be replaced and quite a bit of cabinets too.
