    Cameras

    I was told it was to help in tracking vehicles in case of crime......not speeding. There is one along Scenic Gulf near the Okaloosa/Walton Cty line. They claim it is helpful in case of hit and run or looking for a certain vehicle wanted in crime.

    SWFD: Beach Bonfire Permits Suspended for July 4th

    They are not to be near a turtle nest - the problem is they get a permit and then the turtle nests there and you end up with babies literally going towards the fire.....have seen it more than once. And yes it is too hot for a fire this time of year.

    Red Tide Alert for South Walton

    It really hasn't been that big of a concern in Miramar Beach. I am usually effected by it but there have just been a few times that I have noticed it - then it is just a few sneezes so far. Anything is possible though - especially 3 weeks out - no way of predicting that.

    Topsail State Park has recycling trailers in it. Just go to the guardhouse and tell them you are going to the trailers - you can see them right by the mail parking as you pull in. They will let you in to drop your recycling off.

    Walton County Fishing Pier Survey

    No!!!! There is a fishing Pier in FT Walton OR PCB. Fishing piers make it even more difficult on our endangered nesting sea turtles. So many injuries caused by hooks etc.
