Because for twelve years there has been someone on the beach explaining proper use. That’s why

Crickets

Don’t forget Twilight Zone

...and also, my children asked me not to post while they have been working in Seaside, high school/ college breaks because of the obvious ram rod of one sidedness. So anyone all horny for the truth from a BFO who uses her real name, let’s go...and be sweet

Oh for goodness sakes! These beaches have been private for many years. This cannot be a surprise!

Also remember the SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) for the beaches. One of the many requirements from the Sheriff’s department was to mark your private property.

just to RSVP, a beachfront owner that uses her real name, I will not be coming to the fish fry. Knowing who the fish will be, I have Celiac.

Unfortunately, you cannot unring the bell.

Absolutely, forum friends, and even in real life friends too. I would never discard anyone because of one disagreement, no matter how big. I am kind, open minded, and honest. Haven’t always been the first two, but I’ve always been honest.

Without billable hours, I doubt that.

I dated a couple, but other than watching Perry Mason, not one

Then your posts have no validity.

I just don’t see it your way.

Why would someone need to expose their name to validate their point for you? Whether it’s from Mickey Mouse or Ruth Bader Ginsberg is of no consequence. It’s the substance of their opinion that matters, unless their lack of a real name is all you have to throw back at them.

Not always true.

I was Gailforce until I decided to ditch my nom de plume, so you may not always like me.

Hey, I’m still here. Love this place, love our community, and have since the 60’s

I am a BFO and have nothing to hide nor hide behind. Proudly, I have the Constitution and no need for anything else.

I hear ya

You are kinder than I am. My thought was that it was another way to make public beaches smaller to further the discourse.

Beach Spreading: and the county changed tent size from 8 feet to 10 feet, plus 50% to vendors. Why?

It is dropped. And I’m sorry if my post implied that you or anyone are idiots. That was not my intention

Thank you. But the discourse comes from the beginning of signs due to the WCSO SOP of2015.

I agree with you. But, what was required by the Sheriffs office should be followed.

If the Sheriff legally requires you to follow his Standard Operating Procedure before he will come and handle trespassers, you comply. I understand what you’re saying about trespassing shouldn’t be an issue to begin with, but in the interest of doing what the law has asked . Respectfully, it’s done

Ask the Sheriff, because his SOP required/ demanded all these signs. And that was the reason and the beginning of the signs. Read the WCSO SOP, signs were not an issue until the Sheriff demanded them and more.

Anyone who has a problem with this phrase, may want to reconsider using cash money.

Come on pendulum! Swing!

Where do the vendors get the money to pay their guys to put up chairs that are never paid for? If I worked for a beach vendor and put out a bunch of set ups that no one used, that would honk me off. All the effort for nothing. While it may be less expensive to rent by the week, factor in...

Tents are going up before the beach guys. Not loving the tents either, especially several together.

This looks yummy! I have Celiac and really appreciate the gluten free items. Thanks

When the government says they will take care of anything for the next 50 years, I feel that is something to always be wary of. And question, why won't they allow beachfront owners to renew their beach with their own money and specific guidelines? Especially if this is about renourishment and...

I believe I read somewhere that the sand initially won't be the same color but will bleach out. Did I dream this up or does anyone remember reading this?

February 26 the South Walton Community Council will have a question/answer session at the Seaside Repertory Theater to discuss South Walton incorporating as a city. Go to southwaltoncc.org for all the particulars.

What can 30A do to have a Design Review Board?

I just think that Hampton Inn is the beginning of many more to come. I don't want to get off the subject, especially with Beach Renourishment.

When asked about Beach Renourishment, Jim Bagby, Walton County TDC Director said, "Our beach is our biggest industry, it's the thing that draws people down here. What we are doing is basically doubling the size of the industry with the draw that we have here." Whether a franchise or a B&B...

Public or private. This sea turtle just knows that she must deliver where she was born around 30 years ago. I was shocked to see how shallow this hole was and that a sea turtle was stuck basically digging her own grave. We have always filled in holes, but after seeing this, I'm afraid we never...

This appears to be a sign that is removed at the end of the day. I can guarantee the beach chair guys didn't put it there. Check your facts before you place blame, Tourist.

I do not know how to post it, but there is an article by Dotty Nist from June 2011 that may be helpful. It is WCSO Working to Mediate Beach Disputes.

Don't forget about the holes that people dig on the beach and then leave. These are more detrimental as some are big enough to bury a human let alone a nesting sea turtle.

Let's go to the beach with the intention of being good stewards, then take it from there if need be.

Good story! I'd say you out-cooked Chef Paul with your 'dish'. And a Tom Collins is cool too. Thanks

Crossing guards at certain times of the day?

I was raised Episcopalian and I believe the word is Whiskeypalian LOL. When You said you took your first drink in the French Quarter, a Freshman at Tulane, waiting for the lightening strike , I had to laugh. I will put that next to the line a lady told me about being conceived in Mobile on...

Thank you CCL! And I learned how to use my zoom, so thank you twice.

PS; ars has an e at the end. and you are welcome to walk all over any and all sand

If you don't mind, where were these taken?
