The people in the Sportfish here in the center spent a week or more with us. I think they got all the lobsters in the marina basin as they dove it every day and spotted them late at night on the docks.	FCYC guests here arrived about the 10th of August - just in time to start preparing for Hurricane Charley!
On August 11th the mass exodus started from Hurricane Charley. Here the boats are lining up for the public boat ramp by the club.	The traffic that was backed up for the boat ramp was worse than on the 4th of July! They were even backed up down US1 waiting to get in - traffic going out would get holed up and you couldn't get down 33rd St to the Yacht Club for extended periods, even if you tried to drive down the opposite side of the street.

Al is shuttered down and locked up. Boats are prepared (most were anyway). Good thing we lucked out! Charley hit Ft Myers as a Category IV storm on August 13th.
