    Bobby Bowden forced to retire

    Bobby Here in Tallahassee, it is a mixed bag of emotions. While pretty much everyone loves Bobby, we knew it was time for him to go. Lots of different opinions about how it was handled, but nonetheless, a sad day for Tallahassee and FSU. He will be missed and many will have a hole in their...

    Beach conditions

    :biggrin: Good morning all you beach lovers! I'm wondering how the beach conditions are today? It's August again. Are there any flies yet? and how's the water? Of course it is always fabulous at Grayton no matter what the conditions, but I'm thinking of coming over for a short visit and...

    4X4 vs. AWD

    Hey everyone, I have always had the typical four wheel drive vehicle for the beach (and all my stuff) at Grayton...much of the time I am in high and very little, in low. Several vehicles I am interested in now are only AWD and don't come in 4X4. Any thoughts on whether you think the AWD would...

    Old "Grayton Beach" memories

    Nedine is my cousin. She taaught me just about everything I know how to do. She was always (and still is) such a perfectionist. I remember those horses too! I was allergic, so I could only ride them in the dead of winter so it wouldn't affect my breathing as much. There is nothing like a...

    Old "Grayton Beach" memories

    Re: Old "Grayton Beach" people from the 60's & 70's Some of you oldies also might remember my dog, Wagger. She was the biggest beach lover of us all. (this was when there were no leash laws and dogs were allowed and even welcomed on the beach) She would "fish" in the lake and the gulf all...

    Old "Grayton Beach" memories

    Re: Old "Grayton Beach" people from the 60's & 70's Yeah, I remember the Lonesome pine...in fact I still have a piece of the bark from the old tree. I have kept it all these years! It was devastating when I heard of its fate. I too grew up down at Grayton every summer during the 60's and...

    How's Dennis treating yawl?

    In Tallahassee, We are having a great deal of rain and wind. Trees and debris are on the roads and the gusts are up to 40MPH. This should be about all we will see here I think. I'm much more concerned about you guys at the beach. It just made landfall at Gulf Breeze. Be safe! Jeanne

    Temporary web cam (abbreviated)

    :twisted:I've been on the beach in the middle of the winter while it was raining and not a soul on the beach with my 2 dogs and been stopped by the Sheriff. Fortunately only a warning issured. I got their tags after that. Didn't figure it was worth the $125.00 he wanted to charge me!! :wink...

    Rental Properties North of Grayton

    :shock: Marketing is definitely the key I would say. I have a house now in Grayton Beach on Defuniak Street about 300yards from the water and this past summer was very disappointing. So far the winter isn't much better. I do have it listed with a rental agency...but the market is getting very...

    Where's everybody from?

    :roll: I am from Tallahassee but I grew up in Grayton Beach. My family has been going there for more than 60 years. I have a house in old Grayton now that I rent and use when it isn't rented. I would love to live there full time...but I'll have to wait for retirement.
