I've been wondering if the new communities going up (Alys Beach, Villages of South Walton/Seacrest Beach, Prominence, etc.) will be having concerts/movies on the green, restaurants, shops, etc., at some point, I think we're looking at several years before the construction is completed enough to have enough tenants to support activities like this. Does anyone know what the plans are for these communities? They are down our end of 30A and I'm wondering what the future will bring.

I have to admit. On my bike ride wednesday I also made a point to ride over to see the new palms at Alys (spectacular), the fountain (cool, I hope there'll be colored lights!), and the giraffe (feh, much ado about nuthin' ;-))

Beyond all that, what blew my mind even more that day was the COLOR of the water...i have never seen the gulf more iridescent blue green than on that day. I rode over to the walkover at Rosemary and sat under the umbrella for so long. What a day.

Im actually going to move my next trip down back by one week so I can see the fountain in action...thanks for the heads up.

Sounds like a nice visit! Did you happen to take any photos of that "iridescent blue green" water?

Sadly, all I had was my lousy cell phone, which takes awful images. This is all I got and it doesn't show the color whatsoever. Anyone else get it on a real camera? I saw Kurtie-boy packing up at Alys on my way back, maybe he got one....

Thanks KB! That is definitely a better image than the flurries that I am seeing up here in PA. Maybe Kurtie-boy will post some of his later.

KT - AGREED - I started my day with my sister, a couple of lattes and a bagel at the beach staring at the water. Was also mesmorized by the kaleidoscope of blues of the Gulf - between this and the gorgoeus sunset yesterday I am in heaven!
