Parking near the drawbridge, Ashworth and her mother passed boat after boat listing on Airlie Road on the walk to their house, which was located across the street from where Dockside Restaurant is now. At the time the Dockside building was the Wrightsville Gulf Terminal service station. “It had two great big plate glass windows in the front so when Hazel hit, it washed right through the terminal and broke those plate glass windows because everything in the terminal wound up in our yard,” she says. “Our house was built in 1825 and it didn’t have one bit of damage, even the roof was fine. The back yard was like walking through snow except it was all twigs and reeds, nothing big, just thousands of little pieces about 8 inches deep.”
