And across the Coast Highway all those million dollar homes are built on a slowly eroding mountain of sand, they'll be gone too. Maybe not in my lifetime but at some point.

I live in NE Florida and along the coast in Ponte Vedra the same thing is happening. Every major storm takes more of the coastline away, yet developers and investors continue to rebuild along the coastline. Some home are just on stilts with stairs leading up to the living quarters.
