Hey guys. I appreciate your showing the aftermath on Anna Maria. I am as old school Florida as anybody. Check my last name. Yep! Bean Point is named after my great great grandfather. He laid claim to the land back in the late 1800's. When that comes up many people think I must be rich. NO!! Nobody in my family is rich and we have no claim to any of the island, other than the fact that my family tree dates back to it's founding. Oh, we do have a green historical site sign at Bean Point😂 I spent many summers as a kid on Anna Maria and was sad to see the city pier destroyed a few years back. Fished off that pier many times I live in Tampa and don't get to the island as much as I did when I was a kid. Good to see that the island didn't get hit too badly.

We haven't made it down that way yet since the flooding, but if we do get down there to check it out we will let you know.

Everything we've been hearing about Sarasota so far is that some areas are flooded very badly.

@@JamieandSkylar sure thing… I like to say we were the 1st destination wedding at sunset. The night before we ate at The Sandbar.. Anna Maria? We were all together. The sweetest memories. Bridal gown, Tux’s I grew up on Longboat. Sun N Sea Cottages Nxt to the Hilton. They were wonderful cottages on the most pristine beach. It’s been a long time since driving your route today. I am so grateful for the memories your video brought me today. One thing we always have is our memories ♥️♥️♥️🫶🏻🫶🏻

We sure hope that's not the case, but certainly understand the reason for concern.

This is normal flooding..come to Florida's gulf coast
@JamieandSkylarАй бұрын
Yeah sadly not that abnormal. The flooding in areas of Sarasota was far from normal though. Many areas flooded for the first time in recorded history.

I live out there. That’s salt water that you are driving through. You’re going to ruin your car.
@JamieandSkylarАй бұрын
Yeah, we covered this at the very end of the video. But we do understand that many people aren't aware of the impact of driving through saltwater. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
