GULF ISLANDS TO REOPEN TODAY

Gulf Islands National Seashore will reopen to the public tomorrow at 8am after being closed for almost three months because of damage from Hurricane Sally. The storm caused about 4.5 million dollars in damage to the Florida portions of Gulf Islands. Most of that was damage to the roadway and the destruction of ferry pier as well as damage to the two ferry boats. Much of the repair work to the road is temporary and more permanent fixes will be needed.
