    Emerald Coast Children's Advocacy Center Gala

    Thanks to those that have helped me fill one table, stepped up as sponsors and those that have chosen to just send me a donation; now let's try for two more tables! Also, the theme is going to be THE ROARING 20'S, so you Flappers and Great Gatsby aficionados need to polish up on the Charleston...

    Is There Another solution to the Customary Use Dispute?

    Dave, again I admire your passion on this issue, but I am absolutely astonished that you would try to cast me falsely and negatively to help my opponent, especially when you know the position of all of the current Commissioners and future Commissioners will not impact the ensuing court battles...

    Deadline July 30 for Dems and Indies to be registerd as Republican to make a difference!

    Hello folks, as a candidate for County Commissioner District 4, I want to emphasize that, while all of the candidates are talking nonstop about Customary Use and it surely is one of our biggest issues, we have many more very important ones to consider. We also need to discuss Infrastructure...

    Is Bill Fletcher Having Second Thoughts?

    Now that HB 631 has gone into effect, I'm hopeful the anxiety over Customary Use will prove to be overblown today. I'm also hopeful both sides will show restraint, civility and common courtesy to each other. While I'm absolutely in favor of the public's access to our beaches, I hope everyone...

    Is Bill Fletcher Having Second Thoughts?

    It is pretty amazing (and disconcerting) to read some of these posts and comments about the nefarious and shady motives of me just because I attended DeFuniak Springs City Council meetings. As a member of the Institute for Senior Professionals (ISP) I sat in with the team doing a study of...

    Connector Road Between 30A and 98 East of Seagrove

    Danny, I did not see your post before I made my reply. I wasn't trying to speak for you, but I sure never heard you say you were anti-building. The campaign deception and false statements are just getting warmed up!

    Connector Road Between 30A and 98 East of Seagrove

    I don't know who you are and, as far as I know, we have never met. But, I assume you are talking about me and Mr. Glidewell when you state; "these two new candidates are anti-building". However, I ask that you please refrain from making false statements about me. I have never stated that I am...

    Memorial Day Ceremony at Gum Creek Cemetery

    I was almost to the Gum Creek Cemetery Memorial Day Celebration when I got word that it had been cancelled. Being so close, I decided to go anyway and I am glad I did. About a dozen of us went ahead with a brief ceremony in light rain to honor those that have paid the ultimate sacrifice to...

    Communicating with State Legislators

    I have sent the following to the Governor and several Legislators, please do the same if you agree, thank you. I believe it is extremely important for the citizens to have the ability to send their thoughts/concerns to all State legislators with one email instead of having to do so...

    More Car Burglaries in SoWal

    justhavinfun, You have contributed some good discourse to this discussion, but I encourage you to save your breath. Bob Wells (a really good guy) and I were having a rational conversation on this issue when pappaj and johng made us aware that anyone that has a lapse in memory is an idiot and...

    Is anyone interested in helping our kids?

    Larry, you have been a great addition to our Club and your help with the Flag Program has been tremendous! I just wanted to add a few comments and make a correction. More than a third of Walton County children are living in poverty and 60% of students in North Walton receive free or reduced...

    More Car Burglaries in SoWal

    Pappaj, that is some brilliant logic you posit and I'm sure most everyone will agree with you. Who wouldn't blame a four year old if their parent was that irresponsible? That obviously equates to an adult stealing a firearm from a unlocked or locked home or vehicle and shooting someone. PS-What...

    More Car Burglaries in SoWal

    I too hate that we disagree, but hope you will acknowledge your logic should apply to clubs, knives and cars. I believe combined they kill many more people than stolen firearms from people's cars. Couldn't agree more on being a responsible gun owner and I felt terrible the one time I failed to...

    More Car Burglaries in SoWal

    Bob, I like you a lot and very much appreciate your support when I ran, but this really bothers me. Let's blame everyone but the perpetrator. So, if I leave my baseball bat at the ballfield or leave my tire iron beside the road after a flat and someone uses them to kill or maim someone, it is my...

    More Evidence Bcc Bought & Paid For - Action Needed!

    Danny, sent the following to all of the Commissioners and only got a response from Mrs. Nipper who agrees with my comment. Also asked Mac Carpenter who originated/promoted this change, no response from him either. Commissioners, you have paid a lot of money to have Matrix review our LDC and...

    Fried Bologna Sandwich

    led it Kentucky steak. Bologna sausage, sometimes phonetically spelled baloney (/bəˈloʊni/),[1] known in Europe as a Lyoner, is a sausage derived from mortadella, a similar-looking, finely ground pork sausage containing cubes of lard, originally from the Italian city of Bologna (IPA: [boˈloɲɲa]...

    Privileged White Politics And Walton County

    Lynda, I really thought you knew Suzanne better than that; I can assure you this lady is not going to base her opinion on any party affiliation. As she clearly stated, she thinks he should resign, how is that supporting him? And frankly, I'm disappointed that you want to use this topic for your...

    April is Child Abuse Prevention Month

    Pretty discouraging to have two counties that are approaching 300,000 in population and have the response we we have had to this effort. It has been in the newspapers, on social media, numerous emails and I have knocked on lots of doors. I was hoping we could get a few thousand folks to help us...

    Congratulations To Primary Winners

    Sherm, I can promise you, had Art and I had put the plan together the County would have been millions of dollars better off than they are. The following emails I sent will give you some factual information on Mossy Head. As soon as D & L gives me more information on what the "several others" did...

    Congratulations To Primary Winners

    D & L, Sounds like you are very knowledgeable about Mossy Head. Please expand on "That push to create an economic engine on I-10 was done years ago by several others", particularly prior to March 6, 2013.

    Chapman joins the mud slinging race

    Bob, unfortunately, I think you may be right. Anyone that has attended any of the Candidates Forums (and not many did) knows that all of the candidates are for Customary Use and both Chapman and Imfeld know that. It has been expressed in the Forums and in print. A few of us have suggested that...

    Campaign Sign Theft Solution

    As most of you know, I elected to not litter the roadways with my signs. However, some of my stubborn (but well meaning) supporters decided to put some out anyway. The DOT called to let me know they will be removing signs on Monday. If you have placed any signs, please collect them and let me...

    Chapman joins the mud slinging race

    Throw in drainage issues and you have nailed the issues and you are correct, it has nothing to do with Customary Use. That is just a smoke screen, but probably not very effective.

    Our Generation Column by Michael Weimorts

    Mr. Weimorts says people in Walton County are scratching their heads about who is behind the advertising by Our Generation and suggests we don't need to know. He then eviscerates their veracity by attacking their motives and stating the BBB gives them "a grade of "F" for horrible behavior"...

    Candidate Sign Pick Up

    Bob, I think that is a great gesture on the part of the Association and appreciate it. But, as I think you you know, I've asked my supporters to not litter the roadways with my signs. I have noticed some have ignored that request over the past few days. I have a hard time believing and...

    Walton BCC District 5

    Actually, the turnout was pretty good, I think close to 50 people were there and only a few have been at some of the previous ones. Each forum seems to bring out different groups, of course there are a few of the same concerned citizens at most of them. By all means I believe candidates should...

    I don't know that it was a fundraiser, I believe Chapman just referred to it as an event.

    Walton BCC District 5

    There were three no shows; Vickie Ann Vivarattas, Tony Anderson and Amy Wise Coble. They did not announce why any of them did not show. Bill Chapman excused himself at 5:00 PM for an event in DeFuniak Springs that I was told was at a church. Bill Imfeld told me he was invited last night but felt...
