    I have two Sugar Bowl tickets - can't go

    Hi guys. We are in SoWal this week and brought our two Sugar Bowl tickets with us in hopes of making a quick trip over to New Orleans for the Florida-Cincinnati game. However, no dice. I am wondering if anyone around here is looking for a pair? They are in section 342. I believe this is...

    Oli, Red Bar and more in today's SP Times

    Sometimes it feels like we're the only ones making the drive from this area up to SoWal ... so it always makes me happy to see some good pub for 30A in either of my local papers. :clap: But now I am sad that we won't be coming back until August. :( Santa Rosa Beach a place to find your...

    What the heck bit me at the beach?

    Hey guys, I got stung or bitten by something last night, about a half hour before sunset, at Seacrest Beach. It was about 1/4 or 1/8 of an inch long, and sand-colored. I went to brush away a bunch of sand off my son's shoulders as we were leaving the beach and this bugger was apparently in that...

    Water intrusion expert needed - advice?

    Hi all, We have a long-standing leak issue in our three-story house that I'm fairly certain is not related to the metal roofing system but is coming from some other part of the house. We have tried many things, including re-waterproofing the third-floor deck above the living area where the leak...

    Beijing Olympics

    I'm curious -- how interested are you in the Olympics, which start Friday? I have way less interest this year, which is startling, because I am a longtime Olympics geek. As a teen I went to the L.A. Games in '84 (where I caught gymnast Kathy Johnson's silver medal podium bouquet & shook hands...

    SoWal in the St. Pete Times

    :clap_1: This lengthy piece led the travel section of today's paper -- complete with a full-page, glorious shot of Rosemary on the front cover. Check out the photo gallery also. In our area 30-A is still considered "undiscovered." Almost nobody from around here goes to SoWal. So it was a nice...

    Bunks and small sofa for sale

    Hi all, we will be up March 17-24 doing some work on our Seacrest house, which means reconfiguring a couple of rooms. We are looking to sell two metal white twin-over-full bunk beds and a small denim sofa that folds out into a full-sized sleeper (more suitable probably for children under 10)...

    Living room furniture

    What holds up best at the beach? Our current set is probably still OK but it is a little too, um, festive for our tastes and not of the greatest quality. Our rates will go up next year because the massive construction behind us will be over (it has to be!) and we want to make parts of the house...

    Need carpet/flooring company rec (repair or replace)

    Hi guys, Sadly we need some carpet help. Either someone who can patch a portion of stained berber carpet (which I understand is hard to do even though we have some extra leftover carpet) or do a good job on replacing with fair pricing, or alternately, can do a good hard flooring install (like...

    Kennel in SoWal?

    Anyone have a recommendation for a good kennel in the area for Easter weekend? Looking for a good place for an 80-pound lab. Thanks in advance!

    Tropical Storm Zeta (?!?!?)

    Just when I thought I was about to get over hurricane season too. :bang: Tell me this doesn't have something to do with global warming.

    Directions from Birmingham needed ASAP

    Hi guys ... we have some folks from north of New Orleans coming to our house in Seacrest Beach. They have been in Birmingham with friends for the past week but can't stay, so they're headed down to our place while they figure out what to do next. I have no idea what roads they should take...

    Triathlon in October?

    Assuming we decide to brave all the sharks, hurricanes, yellow flies, rabid dogs, and 100-plus degree temperatures that we all know occur throughout the month of October :biggrin: ... My husband heard there is a triathlon in the area (or maybe Destin or PCB?) in October. Anyone have dates...
