Driving on the beach at Grayton is a condition of being able to access the beach at Grayton, or so the Butler family told me. It is the only...
The Concrete Residence!! :clap:
That reminds me...LOCALS TEST that a lot of locals wouldn't have experienced...I was maybe five years old. You know that before Regional Utilities...
Disney was supposed to be buying First American Farms. Then, the rumor was that it was supposed to be a new version of Branson, Missouri. Still,...
We get tired of people who think they are smarter than we are. :cool:
:floor:
There is a public beach access in Inlet Beach, just before you cross into Bay County. I think it fills up fairly fast too, but it is larger (and...
Also in the early 1990's, while still married to his first wife, Garth Brooks stayed in a house in the BeachHighlands neighborhood. He kept it...
I have been told that, before there was much out here and before he hit it big in Nashville, Keith Urban used to hang around Grayton Beach and...
That is more than just a little disturbing
Dang. I was at Santa Clara a week ago at there was plenty of dry sand. Was surf up due to the hurricane that went to Texas? Or is it STILL like...
You must not remember when there were at least 20 if not more business / attraction signs at 331 & 98. The reason my cousin Gid has a raspy voice...
Question - why are some candidates featured for all three nights and others for only one or two? I can understand other commitments but if...
Because the original purpose of the Tourist Development Tax was to support marketing and maintenance of the Beaches of South Walton. There was no...
Admin cost should be negligible, as the Clerk's Office already has the technology and the staff in place. Though it might be a good time to hand...
Panama City Beach, Panama City and Mexico Beach all have different funds under the direction of the Bay County TDC, and I've never seen anyone...
I pretty much stick with Los Rancheros BUT if Red Bar reopens, they have the most delicious and most deadly margaritas ever. More than one...
I remember the ribbon-cutting for the new building at 331/98. The small one-room visitor center was there previously, but the TDC's...
Call me old-fashioned, but I judge people by how long I've known them and where from. Yes, I know Boots McCormick. We graduated from Freeport...
Boots has more character in his little toe than someone who would judge a candidate based on a picture. My vote is sealed for Boots, but my...
People say that SoWal gets nothing. However, having property in both SoWal and NoWal, I fail to see where NoWal is getting anything either. There...
And I heard the reason one WASN'T built at/near Pier Park is they thought it would take business away from the Tallahassee store. Are you kidding me?
Seriously I wish a Costco was closer. We dropped our Sam's memberships and joined Costco on the grounds that we are in Tallahassee more than we...
Hey Boots! I'll vouch for you... :cool:
This is an awesome benefit! :clap: I used Topsail Hill several times last year. Plenty of parking and the tram will take you to the beach. It's...
Looks like fun. The good old days when I used to drive around finding tax evaders.
**de - lete**
I thought the Stallworth Access was immediately went of the intersection of Highland and South Bishop. Used to be parking there (30 years ago -...
Many "county" employees don't work for the BCC, and while not real fond of tourists, try to be helpful to everyone that comes in or calls.
And, this morning, there are folks on Facebook bashing the Sheriff's Office for responding to a rental complaint. Said they "scared" a family...
Boots McCormick still needs signature petitons to get on the ballot. Signing a petition has nothing to do with who you vote for, although I...
As a former county employee married to a retired deputy sheriff...you couldn't be more wrong. The TDC is supposed to make visitors happy. The...
Not no, but HELL no. If one comes in, put it on 98. Perhaps in Bay County.
If you do away with the TDC, Walton County would no longer be collecting bed tax. The uses for the taxes already collected are set under Florida...
This really saddens me...for a different reason than the folks who lost money, of course. I know the people who started Sunburst. Bright,...
If you see him/her again, could you take a picture at close range, or zoom it in? It's a long shot, but my Siamese went missing about 10 years ago...
I think that's a good idea. If enough people want that, see if you can get our state representatives to sponsor a bill before the Legislature....
Also, this gator was in Basin Bayou. There is not much room to navigate in there. Not only a danger to dogs, but children as well. As far as...
Like Will B, I don't remember Camping on the Gulf aka Camp Gulf ever NOT being there. I grew up here and, even though I hate to admit it, I'm...
Just west of Villa Tasso, at Camp Timpoochee. Just east of the Mid-Bay Bridge. Lots of military families live in Choctaw Beach.
If my backyard was a place that out-of-town visitors flocked to, thereby bringing us their cooties, and such visitors being seen in my backyard...
Federal Court for us is in Pensacola. Grrrr. :poop:
Not an acceptable use of funds under Florida Statutes. Though I wish it was. The Statutes also mandate that a portion of the tax must be used to...
Nick's on the Beach may be gone, but the original Nick's is still going strong! (No, I didn't mean for that to rhyme)
William "Boots" McCormick has prequalified. As of earlier this week, nobody had thrown their hat in. ShallowsFuzz and I will be helping him...
Not subject to the Sunshine Law. The bed tax is governed by the same set of statutes that the Florida Department of Revenue is bound by regarding...
HeHeHe...highly confidential info - though I haven't been under the county confidentiality agreement for 4 years. You are pretty close - missed...
If you have never been to a street party that more or less closed down 30A in Seagrove Beach...if you've never fished from daybreak to dusk...if...
One idea. I am not sure how enforcement and auditing has been happening. It's possible that audits are being done remotely by the employee that...
Wish it wasn't a weekday
Separate names with a comma.
