We were on #PineIsland today. Friends from the east coast brought supplies over for us to drop off on the island. We’re also with a group who brought back animals to the mainland. We’ll keep you up to date on what’s happening in this area. @winknews@TaylorPetras
I haven’t been able to contact my friend Trudy Hylant since hours before #HurricaneIan hit. She was riding out the storm in Bokeelia Pine Island. Has anyone seen her? I’m desperate to know if she’s ok. #pineisland#bokeelia
@Lipstay @BrianEntin she is protecting private property. Florida is a stand your ground state. Also, she is armed with pistols, she obviously has the training required to use them legally under any circumstance. she knows what she is doing!
Made it out to Pine Island, Florida. The barrier island has been totally cut off from the mainland.
The Coast Guard, Florida Fish and Wildlife, and a ton of volunteers are shuttling supplies and people back and forth. Crews are making progress rebuilding the roads.
The Florida Department of Transportation is doing incredible work rebuilding the road from the mainland to Pine Island. Been watching them all day and they’ll work all night. Residents on the island have little communication and were relieved when I told them about the progress.
.@WCKitchen teams are across Florida today serving thousands of meals to people needing our support after #HurricaneIan. This is the bridge going to Pine Island.. and why we have an amphibious vehicle to be able to reach wherever needed with food, water! #ChefsForFlorida
@Tiffany34006057@BrianEntin Beach Talk Radio has a running list of folks to look for on their FB page. You can also search the site for his name to see if anyone has seen him.
