I've seen a right whale with a calf that came up to our boat. It was a spectacular site. I think they are making a comeback.

Insert has been spoken for. Insert taken.

We have found a housekeeper. Thank you!

Seeking Reliable Cleaner for rental property. I have owned it for 14 years and it rents very well, so you will be guaranteed income a large portion of the year. There are many stairs, so must be agile. Thanks! Please email me at seasidehaven3@gmail.com with your contact info.

I have 4.5 baths that I would like to tile. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. If you are the tiler, please post your name and telephone # here. Thanks!

It's been a long time since I posted here and ya'll are probably thinking, who cares what that damn Yankee thinks. I have had a home in Sowal for 12 years and now many Sowalers are close friends. I have come to love the Southern “culture”, for lack of a better word. To me, that's sitting on the...

Besides For The Health of It, any other recommendations for gluten free shopping? They are on closed Sundays.

I suggest you do your homework on the difference between an unincorporated community vs. an incorporated community before stating the beach towns are not incorporated, since depending on the laws of FL, then the commissioners might not have jurisdiction over those communities. I'm not talking...

That's like trying to change New York, New York. When people ask, that is how I explain it. This is, in all likelihood, about someone complaining, who has deep pockets, because they think they may have an unfair advantage advertising their rental property or for Gulf Place to gain an edge. Who...

There is also a lot of farmland to consider in that area near the Delta. I am glad you raised this. I was sick as a dog in May in Sowal and it was definitely not from swimming in the Gulf. It was most likely viral or food poisoning. My husband had it before we left for Sowal and I got it a few...

I recall a thread that had a formula for a maximum occupancy being put up before the Commisioners or passed, but I am unable to find it. Is there a fire code or one in code enforcement relative to the maximum amount of people in a rental unit? I remember seeing something about 2 people to a...

Barbados is my favorite beach aside from Sowal. The Bajan people are really nice, so if you do venture out of your hotel, you won't have much worries. There is crime like any other place, but for 1 hour more on the flight, you will have a much better time than Puerto Rico, IMHO. There are...

I have a compost heap and the deer bed down in it all the time, especially Winter because it says warmer. Just this Summer, there was a baby deer bedding down a lot in the woods close to the houses to avoid predators. He must have lost his mother because the kids in the neighborhood were hand...

Christmas, 2008. :lol:

I have had snowbirds in both a larger and smaller property. The only concerns I have ever had was whether or not I would be barraged with calls for minor items, like replacing light bulbs, but, you can pretty much get a feel for the renters based on a phone conversation. So far, so good. I like...

It looks like our area Congressman are sponsoring the Bill. Looks like the Bill is written to use BP fines for economic development on both a federal and local level, if I am understanding correctly: Read more: http://www.newsherald.com/articles/sign-97410-washington-act.html#ixzz1dQ4x8jto...

Hmmm, I might be inclined to bust my budget to go to Six fags out of curiosity. ;-) At places like Universal Studios, et al, they heavily discount the rates to Floridians. I've also seen the rates come down drastically in New York City on Broadway shows, even adding in dates on weekdays to draw...

Unless it was a first time for an event, and even with all the planning in the world, the event was overwhelmed the first round, then charging 25% -50% doesn't seem appropriate. If you want to eliminate the snoot factor, explain in your advertising the rationale for the large increase, otherwise...

interactive displays that ask questions and that people can touch, especially about the turtles and other sea life. Free coloring books, like the one online at the turtle site. A dune lake video and/or exhibit should be a definite. Most of my renters who have been to the area before have no...

Does the TDC post signs along heavily traveled roads now? I have never seen one and I have come in different ways to the beach. They do this in Massachusetts and the visitors centers get lots of use, especially if they have rest rooms and someone on staff to answer questions. They also have lots...

I love this lab's tongue. It looks like it has a paw print on it. So cute.

You may want to call the Teresa Cline Gallery. Teresa is very active in the adoption community and has 4 labs herself. She has sponsored a bunch of labs for adoption. I am sure she can find you a great lab puppy or very young one that you can adopt that will already have shots, has been...

FTLOG, nice to see where my tax dollars are going. :roll: That a responsible citizen is harassed for improper placement of dog tag, especially if the dog is leashed. Even if a dog is loose and were to bite someone, if the tag were on the neck of a long haired dog, chances are the dog is not...

But, even with a comparable job, one still can not afford to be in the City. People have to move further North. Even then, people are competing with many other renters now because previous homeowners are now renters.

I live in New York and trust me, Sowal rental rates are no where close to what rental rates are in NY.

Do not allow them to automatically renew you. Let them bill you and show you your options for renewal. I've been a customer of theirs for 8 years with multiple properties. One of them I let lapse for a few months in the dead of Winter. They offered me a rate of $19 for the quarter in 2009 and...

What's wrong with eating blue cheese on a regular basis?? It's good for you. The blue part is a probiotic, which is good for your digestive health. :cool: Just discovered blue cheese on bread atop a fig swizzled with honey. Thought I had died and gone to heaven. :clap:

You may want to contact Pomeranian Rescue Groups in the Northeast. You would be surprised how many people here are looking for pure breed dogs. You can't fly a dog right now because of the heat, but there are companies that cart dogs and cats to the Northeast in quite comfortable conditions...

Why don't they put a money bank in it, like they have on buses when you first get on, so if some people want to "donate" to their ride, they can, but not make it mandatory? I am sure there are many of us who see the benefit of this who wouldn't have a problem throwing a few bucks in to avoid...

:cool: Make your own, it's funn! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbFqZetrRbE

The same thing happened to me, not once, but twice. (Not at named restaurant) The fee added was over 50% at one place; a finer restaurant that I called and asked if if was ok to just take out a piece of pie; a piece of pie that shouldn't have cost more than $6, but my bill was $10. The other...

Found some interesting information on the web, although, I am not sure what is what, so I guess weeds are off the menu for my dog. Maybe this is the reason the dog you saw needed surgery, Snerd? (from the same article link above: Here's another interesting link I found: Why do dogs eat seaweed?

More like playing with it and chewing it, the same way dogs hold sticks. He doesn't seem to be chewing it to eat, but I am sure he swallowed some. He seems to be ok.

My dog seems to have an affinity for certain seaweeds, the ones that look like sticks. I have no clue what could be toxic or not, so I have been taking it from him as quickly as possible. Do any other dogs like it, do you let them eat it, are any toxic? Going to do a google search, just thought...

Here's another cool one I saw right after this one. Must be dolphin Sunday. YouTube - Cat and Dolphins playing together

Pretty cool. A dolphin stops and poses for the camera. Looks like Flipper. :cool: Videos Posted by World's Most Beautiful Beaches: Dolphin Encounter on panama City Beach | Facebook

This just makes me so happy! Update: Approximately 758 people from 3 states showed up to sign up for the bone marrow donor program in honor of Jordan. Bone marrow transplant a success!!!! Jordan Jemsek is recovering from surgery after a rough week; may go home soon. Little Jordan...

Oh sheet, haven't a clue. :wave: maybe Alaqua will give some to you. They have lots of horses.

Yep, iron. If I haven't run the water in a while in my house, it comes out brown first. Having said that, the water taste fine to me. I live right by the reservoir that feeds into NYC-- purported to have some of the best tap drinking water in the world-- and they do not taste much different to...

You can watch Discovery land here: NASA - STS-134 There are a bunch of videos. I have been watching them for days. The next planned flight is for Endeavor on April 19th.

What about sheds? I can fit 4 on bunks in mine. :whitetrash: I don't see this legislation affecting me terribly since I mostly do not exceed the occupancy that would be allowed. I have a 4 bedroom that sleeps 12 in beds (no pull outs, blow ups or bunks) and I do not like more than 12 people. I...

Duh. I read it quickly as 2X2 =4. :lol:

Scooty, read letter B again on page 3. It says whatever is LESS. Am I reading this wrong, because pro-legislation posters seem to be okay with this because it includes language about weddings. That's all fine and good, but this is also applicable to people who rent their homes short term who...

I overheard him sing Maggie Mae and I could have sworn it was Rod Stewart until I walked in the room and saw it was this young fella. Good luck to him. Making it this far in the competition is something to be quite proud of.

Need names of and estimates from carpet installers. Thanks!

:cool: The mountainous area of northern Mozambique in southern Africa had been overlooked by science due to inhospitable terrain and decades of civil war in the country. However, while scrolling around on Google Earth, an internet map that allows the viewer to look at satellite images of...

Santa Rosa Beach, FloridaPhoto: Gregory Moine/Flickr Santa Rosa Beach Florida Although this entire gallery could be filled with Florida beaches, there is one in particular that caught our eye this year. Recently celebrating its centennial anniversary, Santa Rosa Beach, and its long...

I only searched for Siamese on Alaqua's site and came up with a bunch, so they will probably have a big selection of cats needing homes that fit the breed types you are looking for. Here's a Siamese Kitten. They also have the coolest cat houses I have ever seen at a shelter. You can sit there...

:clap: Love it! You both look like you're are having a blast. I have been training my pup for this slowly - no jumping yet till he is a year old because of his hips, but I made a small course in the yard with a tube, a stair and a hoop for starters and he zipped through it happily. In the...

I was fortunate enough to have a close friend who is an excellent, experienced dog trainer give me tips on training, and one of the harder things to do is teach during distractions. I take my pup for a walk around my neighborhood frequently and there are two small, yappy dogs that run out to the...
