The following was included as part of a posting today at www.jimhillmedia.com:

Relax. That loud noise that you've been hearing coming from Florida's coastline is NOT Hurricane Ivan. But -- rather -- a collective sigh of relief from the staff of Disney's Vero Beach Resort.

"What's with all the sighing?," you ask. Well, late last week, it was reported that the damage that Hurricane Frances caused to this beachfront hotel was so severe that the Mouse was going to have to shut down its Vero Beach operation until at least September 30th. Since then, Disney Company management has actually had a chance to inspect the hotel. Which is why Mickey has now asked reporters (nicely) to amend their earlier stories about this Disney Vacation Club facility.

You see -- as of right now -- it looks like repairs could be complete at the Vero Beach Resort by as early as this coming weekend. Which means (Provided -- of course -- that a fourth hurricane doesn't suddenly rise up out of the Atlantic and immediately set its sights on Florida's Eastern shore) that this 175-room hotel could be once again be open for business sometime during the week of the 20th.

Thanks for the news. We were supposed to check in on the 15th and didn't know what we were going to do for the first two days, so this is great news.
