9. If you're driving and see someone on foot or bicycle trying to cross 30-A, stop for them, no matter how much of a hurry you're in. Most people driving the opposite direction will follow your good example. 🙂

10. Do not drive your car on the bike path - even to get around a car turning left.

11. Walk or bike to the beach. If you need a truck to haul 'it' onto the beach and you aint towing a boat, you don't need it.
12.Set a good example and pick up litter as you leave the beach even though it isn't yours.

13. Do not, I repeat do not flip anyone off while jogging or on a bike. You never know who they are. Your day could get real ugly. Alot of good ol boys are a little disgruntled and hope you make the mistake of giving them a reason to pull their pickup over! 😱

Alot of good ol boys are a little disgruntled and hope you make the mistake of giving them a reason to pull their pickup over! 😱I've done that one a few times, but it is usually to some girl smoking cigarettes and yapping on the cell phone while yelling at me as they nearly run me off the road. I say, "bring it on, Sista!" It has been a long time since I had to put a woopin' on a girl. :funn:(come on now, you know I haven't had to do that... yet.)
Kurt, you better watch out if you keep being rude to someone -- they may spit on you. ;-) :floor:
dont you know thats the truth. Beware of us country girls...............we are just as dangerous as any ol' redneck in waco.......... nowal or sowal.
so. had dinner at bogey's, below hotel defuniak. I had the oysters, served raw with red and black caviar as well as a sour cream horseradish sauce. was fabulous. oysters could have been colder, and they didnt seperate the oyster from the shell(made for too much work). as well as the wilted spinach salad which was nice as well. No wine list as of yet, selection at the bar was poor however, they stated they had more that was available. Garlic loaf bread was nice. my date had the ny strip which was perfect. Overall a spectacular experience. they have only been open 3 weeks...................... worth the drive from the beach. plus black linens are nice on a table, doesnt leave lint on a black dress!! did not ask if white linens were available for women in white. Live music friday and saturday night from 7-10 pm. Bar area looked good too, for apps & cocktails. go check it out. am sure it will only improve with time. lwp

sounds great, may need to take a trip up for dinner. can roll in a visit with m/m clampitt and grayton kid while i'm up there.
will be sure to give a detailed review either this evening or tomorrow morning in the dining forum..........
Walton County should be appreciated for all its aspects both at the south end as well as the north. This is the only way to create a balanced environment in my opinion............

Thanks for the restaurant review and :welcome:
it is best to put your butts in a ziploc or a beer can and dispose of it upon departure of the beach. Everyone should help keep mother nature happy............ and our beaches beautiful for generations yet to come. Please come check out bogeys........... Defunk, the lakeyard district especially, is beautiful and needs our support. Please keep an eye out for especially talented musical postings in this area soon. lwp
