    Beach Driving Permit Lottery Opens April 1, 2014

    Has anyone seen the 2015 version of the beach driving permit application? The link on the Walton County web site does not work.

    Hampton Inn Seagrove Beach on Chateau Hotel Property

    I have to agree with those who feel that the county planning commission will most likely side with the developer of this project, against the wishes of the majority of the residents. I am not a regular at the commission meetings But in those I have attended it is rare that the commission...

    Uptown Grayton Has Something for Everyone

    BTW, concur about Little Italy. Nice place.

    Uptown Grayton Has Something for Everyone

    Just had a shaved ice two weeks ago. They're behind the new real estate office when you first pull in on the west side.

    Uptown Grayton Has Something for Everyone

    The shaved ice place isn't half bad either.

    New stuff at Grand Boulevard

    I understand that Starbucks has advertised this location as the "world's largest coffee shop." Given the crowds at the Silver Sands Starbucks I'm looking forward to the opening. Judging from the great business done by Applebee's in he area I think a sports bar would be a welcome addition to...

    Scenic 30A Re-opened Between Hwy 393 and Hwy 83 @ Draper Lake

    Another stop light on 98! So we're going to create a permanent problem in an effort to address what we all know to be a temporary one while the county fumbles around with the bridges? I understand that those who now need to use 83 to get out of the Blue Mountain area want safe access to 98...

    Scenic 30A Re-opened Between Hwy 393 and Hwy 83 @ Draper Lake

    So 30A is down at both Draper Lake as well as in Dune Allen, just before the prime tourist season. That should work out well for businesses along that route.

    Scenic 30A Re-opened Between Hwy 393 and Hwy 83 @ Draper Lake

    But no update on the Dune Allen bridge project reportedly scheduled for completion on 29 March?

    20" reported in 24 hours

    Agreed. We need something in SOWAL to give us more accurate weather data.

    Carson Oaks Phase II

    Is anyone tracking Phase II of the Carson Oaks development off of Mack Bayou? I'd hate to see those live oaks at the entrance come down in the name of "progress." The beautiful entrance may be the best feature of the neighborhood.

    Scenic Hwy 30A Detour in Dune Allen

    Looks like three more weeks: http://www.nwfdailynews.com/local/last-phase-of-30a-bridge-work-delayed-1.302072 By TOM McLAUGHLIN / Daily News Published: Monday, April 7, 2014 at 17:58 PM.

    Scenic Hwy 30A Detour in Dune Allen

    If you don't establish a completion date, you're never really late. It's a pretty good contract if you can get it.

    Scenic Hwy 30A Detour in Dune Allen

    Last time I drove through there it looked as though the project was not near completion. Is there still no estimate of a completion date? I would have to think that the property owners affected by the detour route are tiring of the traffic by now.

    Excellent. I'll stop in there. Thanks.

    Scenic Hwy 30A Re-opened Between CR 83 and CR 283

    Thanks to all involved in the effort to reopen 30A.

    SOWAL Front License Plate

    Outstanding. Where's the Annex on 331?

    SOWAL Front License Plate

    Outstanding. Thanks for the prompt reply. I would have thought that some enterprising local merchant would carry them. But maybe the potential sales volume doesn't justify stocking the item. Thanks again.

    SOWAL Front License Plate

    Where can I get my hands on a SOWAL front plate? I have seen plates with "30A," but none for SOWAL.

    Whats the scoop of living in Wild Heron?

    We looked into Wild Heron a couple of years ago, but decided not to buy there due to what we thought were prohibitive HOA fees.

    Gulf Place Officially a TDC Beach Neighborhood

    So it looks like the vast majority of us in the 32459 zip code actually live in SRB, as evidenced by our respective addresses. Yet there is discussion of eliminating that particular name from the list of beach communities? Seems backwards to me. But I appreciate the discussion.

    Gulf Place Officially a TDC Beach Neighborhood

    I'm not sure I understand what is to happen to Santa Rosa Beach if it is "just a zip code?"
