Canopy on the beach

[Everytime]

Time for my .02 cents. We do take canopies with us to the beach. We set them up very morning and take them down every night. We do not do this to get a "prime beach spot", we do it to have a place to get out of the sun when we want to. We like to spend all day on the beach since we are only there for a short time. A week to me is a short time.

Kathy:

Your post and your photos are proof that it is not unreasonable nor impossible to set up tents each day (it looks your group has 3 or more?), utilitize them, and take them down each day. It looks like everyone is able to enjoy the beach and each other, take shelter from the sun, and enjoy their vacation, yet still maintain the ability to take the tents down each day. THAT is an example that some of the other tent-users should follow (and one that many tent users already follow, fortunately).

Oh I just couldn't read anymore. If anyone is curious one of our old trolls is currently unemployed and bored in bama. I would bet dollars to doughnuts that if one of these trolls IP addresses were banned the rest would go with it.

Oh on another note, isn't it illegal to represent one's self as an attorney without the proper credentials?

...on a positive note, it's attorneys (?) like that poster that keep Mr. K up late doing the graphite octopus.

Just a note. This will be our families tenth summer trip to Sowal. This board has been the most helpful and informative tool on the area I have ever come across! We drive all the way from Austin, Texas. Since we have been coming to the beach for a while we have accumulated a lot of what I call "beach plastic junk". It used to be that my brother 'n' law and I would fight to see who would be the unlucky one to take the mess in their car. We finally pitched most of it and tell the kids if you bring it down to the beach you haul it back up at the end of the day. Now the stuff is limited to a football, frisbee and and maybe a pale and shovel for the little one's. We stay at Watersound and pay a little extra for the beach umbrella service. It's great. Thanks again for all the great info!!

Thank you! I hope ya'll have a wonderful stay at Watersound and I'm so glad ya'll get it!

As an engineer, my credentials allow me to formulate a new equation:

(gay)(boi) = (gay)(TROLL)

you can substitute boi for TROLL and still get the same person!

Someone protests a bit much. What troll behavior have I displayed?

Let's see here, we now have a lawyer, doctor, and an engineer. Are any of your degrees from an ACREDITED school? Please do tell what school you went to, what sort of engineer are you? If your based in Florida do you even know how many numbers are in a Florida liscense number?

Yes, an ABET accredited school in the Boston area...(notice that accredited has more than one c in it)

don't bother to come back, your attitude is not welcome. Read Kurt's message again and again.

Ok, just got the scoop from the county / code enforcement.

The tagging will begin this Saturday. This is what we were told. All items left on a public beach will be removed (including beach chair service). All items left on a private beach will be tagged and the owner will have a specified time to remove - if not removed, they will be taken too.

As a side note and something we were unaware of. Beach chair & umbrella service is not allowed / legal on public beaches. In order for a beach chair vendor to legally set up a chair and umbrella for a customer, they must have a contract with the private beach owner or homeowners association. The only way a beach service company can operate is either by way of a contract or they can deliver the chairs and umbrellas to a client that has ordered the service -- but the customer must take the equipment to the beach and remove it at the end of the day or the county will take this equipment too. No vending is allowed on public beaches.

I think I've read policy which allows for permitted vending on beaches. If I recall, it wasn't specific as to the type of ownership. Can you pull the particular ordinance which says otherwise?
