The storm surge and wind from hurricane Earl just got done pounding the island - I hope there is still some sand on the beach and the beach bars survived okay. Probably all the sand is up on the road and on the runway - they should get the airport open right away and we hope the island has suffered minimal damage.

St. Martin News Network reports:

 

The Sunset Beach Bar suffered significant damage as the waves were beating into the restaurant balcony and sitting area.

I clicked on the link and there is a bunch of news...however, I can't find the article on the Sunset Beach Bar. :(

Ok, nevermind. I finally found the search button on the site:

Gary, do you know if any of those pictures are of the Sunset Beach Bar they posted?

[gtaylor]

No photos of Sunset there, but reports from the island are that it is up and running.

 

Beach sand in already coming back.
