And here is one of them! An exception is the 4th of July parade. Hokey as it is, it is fun and a tradition with us.

It is nice when the Sheriff's Department is so innovative.

The key word here, is ELECTED. We put them in office. Many don't like what they do sometimes but they do what they think the public desires as they see it. If you have a problem with the school...

Also the little church down 393 on the right hand side as you go toward 98. It is non denominational according to my daughter who use to attend it.

It was sparkling clear and emerald green at BMB as well.

Bob, that is correct. I attended the meeting and certainly do not believe the audience was "stacked" with supporters of the fishing pier. While I have no opinion one way or the other regarding the...

Where is this new place? Is that the new name for what was formerly Criolla's?

WaltonParent, some cannot focus on the forest, they only can see one particular tree.

It is amazing the different and varied ideas posters have as to what to do with this money. Most of them bad or at least basically unworkable. Thank you, BeachSiO2, for keeping those uninformed...

No atmosphere but amazingly good food!!!

The picnic tables, being down near the bay, are a long way from the mansion. I seriously doubt that anyone would question a bottle of wine or some beer. It is a great place for a picnic.

That little corner of Grayton Beach is probably the least known and the best food in the whole of SoWal. Right across from Pickle Factory is the House of Klaus. Absolutely no ambiance but...

How true!! How true!!

Me too. Guess I'll have to walk across the street and get some.

Speaking of Blue Mountain Beach, you might want to consider it as well. Sea Bluff, 19 townhomes, has recently been completely renovated and has a really nice pool as well as sitting right on the...

You got that right, Navy Chief! Some would rather be exposed all summer to mosquito carried tropical diseases than suffer the minor consequences of spraying the areas where they live. My, some have...

Oh, all of you who think the growth here is overwhelming, quit griping. When I bought here, you had to drive to Destin to get anything. Now, we have restaurants, shops, supermarkets and other...

All residents need to set up their own criteria for evacuation. Some say I will evacuate if a cat. l hurricane is going to hit my area. Others have cat. 2 or 3. Evacuation has never been a problem...

I'm sorry I misinterpreted as well.

Two days in a row! This time "take out" and were they, once again, fantastic! I don't know where Hanie got these crawfish but they are definitely among the best Betty and I have ever eaten. You...

If you like, or as I and Betty do, love boiled crawfish, you simply must take advantage of Marie's today or tomorrow. The crawfish and all the fixins' they are offering are wonderful!!! They are...

WaltonParent, I may be misreading you but I think you are being sarcastic toward what I posted. How anyone raises their kids are their business. I, BTW, hated my father for many of the things he made...

3 pounds. We'll be there early!!!

Yes, Dallas has some wonderful restaurants. Evidently you haven't been here too long. It is really a rarity to get a bad meal in the area. We are blessed to have so many wonderful and varied...

Your concept of maturity and intelligence is obviously different from mine.

I know several qualified people who are stupid, too.

Rick, you can see the exact presentation on www.neighborvision.com if you wish. That said, I have my own thoughts on cleaning the beach. If it is a private beach and all citizens are welcome to use...

It was a very civil exchange between two mature, intelligent people. The public should be pleased with both of them.

The coining of a wonderful new term!

Great suggestion! It is really too bad we have gotten to the point where our youth cannot work at odd jobs in the summer. I was 11 when I started cutting lawns. I learned a lot from my customers...

I agree with your assessment, Teresa. While our condominium complex is undergoing extensive renovation, we did have some rentals during spring break. Nothing disasterous or even minor occurred on...

Just because you go to an excellent and expensive school does not make you a snob. I, on the other hand, went to a fully integrated school when it was an unheard of occurrence here and the South. ...

In my opinion this is a travesty!!! Who in the world is responsible for this! At the WCTA meeting less than two weeks ago, I was privilege to hear one of the best presentations of what and how we...

Pretty strong, if fallacious, first post, lifeatthebeach. You will be a welcome addition to the SoWal group. BTW, I can't remember the last time I had really bad service in SoWal and even mediocre...

No. Not if it is on the grass right of way..,

I, too, hated the crawling bugs but agree the Biophilia Center is a great boon to the county and our local school system.

I agree with your assessment on Constitutional Amendments, j.p.. I guess I didn't know they were exempt. Another tax ploy by special interest groups.

This is sad. If it is true, some way should be found to take away their tax exempt status for the land it owns.

How come no mention of Lin's? Their Thai Curry is a wonderful dish and I would imagine that if someone approached them with a request for more Thai dishes and suggestions for such, they would...

The E.O. Wilson Biophilia Center is a diamond in the rough. It is a very useful tool for all who are willing to learn but especially for our school children. Unfortunately, it sits in the middle of...

Absolutely true and really needed here. It never ceases to amaze me that people can't pull up to a four way stop, note the number of cars there and then proceed when it is their turn. Those able to...

Not that it matters, but I completely concur.

It would be nice to know the price for the boil.

There have been many suggestions made to the TDC regarding the expenditure of funds on many projects other than advertising.

Put some of our teenagers to work who want summer jobs in kiosks at...

I have a question. Are their meetings to be open to the public for viewing and comment?

As is always the case, Anita Page should be thanked profusely for posting the agenda in the manner she has. It is of great benefit for those planning to attend the meeting. It also allows a...

Sanctuary By The Sea is, as stated above, remote as far as the beach is concerned, and would be a good family fit if you can afford it. The stretch of beach is fairly unused when compared to other...

Yeah, I'd like to see the source, too. $250,000 sounds awfully high to me. But then I tend to think in the tens and hundreds as that is where my financial acumen lies.

May I strongly suggest, no, insist that if you are going to make accusations against our elected officials, unnamed, you supply something more than is in the above post.
I, for one, am sick and...

You did all of us a great service, miznotebook. Some who do not live on the beach do not realize all that goes on on it, both good and bad. All they want to do is criticize.
