fort myers beach: Got Oil ? Nope !
- 08/07/10 08:37 AM
Got Oil ? Nope ! We've all seen that great ad campaign by the milk industry with a faceshot of a celeb and milk on the upper lip. It communicates so much with so few words ! It certainly reminds us to pick up some milk on the way home doesn't it ? One of my favorites is the Danica Patrick ad. Great job of combining a very recognizable celeb face and the trademark milk on the upper lip !
So what is my point ? Easy. Check out this darling little girl playing along the Gulf of Mexico shoreline on … (13 comments)

fort myers beach: Wind mitigation insurance savings on Fort Myers Beach
- 04/03/10 08:25 AM
Last year I read about a State of Florida sponsored program to encourage homeowners to have their home inspected to determine readiness for a windstorm. The state would pay certified wind mitigation inspectors to inspect homes and provide a written report of all aspects meeting or exceeding current construction standards relating to wind ratings. The program recognizes that certain construction techniques and methods make a dwelling better able to withstand the damges incurred during a windstorm. I was skeptical but the certified inspector was very thorough, explained the program in detail and pointed out some additional things which I could do … (4 comments)
fort myers beach: Fort Myers Beach - Just a quaint little beach town !
- 03/29/10 08:24 AM
Fort Myers Beach used to be home to dusty fishing shanties. The dirt road along the Gulf of Mexico was subject to being washed out during high tide. The tourists visiting the area came mostly for the chance to catch fish from the waters off Estero Island. The name would later be better known as Fort Myers Beach. The local Indians who shared the island would provide needed supplies when possible. The fishing shanties would be replaced by larger and more permanent structures as the island became known. Visitors from Canada and Europe became more common and the permanent island population would … (2 comments)
