Anyhow, he gets ticked off and says that he could add that I was not wearing a seatbelt since I was wearing a 5 point harness. A pickup truck goes by with a bunch of guys on the bed and I said, heck those are the ones not wearing a belt and his reply was, that's different the bed does not provide belts......

Here's a random pic:

Good call Jeremy!
I used to go there (White Sands on Sanibel) every year before Charly hit. We stayed at Cane Palm over on Estero a few weeks back, the first time I have been back there after all the rebuilding. It was amazing to see that Sanibel and Captiva are now joined by a land bridge, where the pass used to be! There were a couple of days while we were there that the storms just kept rolling in one after another. You can just see the palm trees and sea grapes bending in the wind in the lighthouse pic, this one was taken from the breezeway at Cane Palm when another one of the storms rolled in:

Actually, just after I took the picture of the lighthouse, I saw one of the coolest things ever. We were just standing there, looking at a rain shaft over the water when a bolt of lightning struck open water about 200 yards off the beach, I have never seen a steam plume shoot up like that before! Truely amazing. Of course that's when we decided to head inland!

Very cool key. Did it start off as the one on the right? If so, how did you get it round?

I've made a key (for a small master lock brand padlock) by using a high quality xerox copy of the key and some poster board. Cut the key out with a razor blade, ran the paper key thru the key duplicator and had a working metal key. Took about 10 minutes.

The 2 houses in the pic were wiped out in Charlie. Lighthouse is still there.
