    Tootsies World Famous Orchid Lounge... Pier Park

    Tootsies is a really good time! On the rare occasion that I do decide to drive downtown and go honky tonkin', I got to Tootsies and Legends Corner (a few doors down from Tootsies). A few weekends ago my friends girlfriend set up a scavenger hunt through downtown Nashville for his brithday and...

    Introduce Yourself

    Jdarg, I beleive it was 27. It began with me driving down 30A and coming to the stop sign at Defuniak St. I'd stopped there a million times on my way to and from Seagrove and Seaside (I still like to get coffee at Studio 210). I decided to turn right this time and see where the road went...

    Making a visit to Grayton, have questions about timing...

    We're either coming on April 18th or 25th. Should I wait till the 25th to make sure all spring breakers are gone? I've found a place withing walking distance of the beach and Red Bar for $230/$190 a night (depending on before or after April 14th). Ill make a post in the Vacation Rental...

    Making a visit to Grayton, have questions about timing...

    Looks like we're going to hold off till mid April. Works better for her schedule and it will be warmer. NotDeadYet, Thanks for the reply. I love Grayton and cant wait to come down. I've been building it up to my girlfriend for quite a while and now its time to introduce her to heaven...

    Making a visit to Grayton, have questions about timing...

    Thinking about suprising the lady friend with 3 nights in Grayton the last weekend of March and I have 2 questions: Will it be warm enough for shorts and will the spring break crowd be bad? Its been a long time since I did the spring break thing and I dont know if Grayton gets hit pretty bad...

    Led away in Handcuffs

    Thanks BeachSiO2. Rock on! Crap! Forgot to ask my other question! Do you have to own property to apply for a vehicle beach access sticker or can anyone apply? I just realized this isnt related to the thread so Ill stop after this question... Sorry.

    Led away in Handcuffs

    Quick question out of curiosity. Is the beach behind The Red Bar public? That's where I hung out the week before last when I was down there. All this talk makes me nervous about where I need to stay and play when I come down to visit. Thanks in advance! :cool:

    The bike rack comment was just plain wrong... I love it!

    Security on 30-A Beaches

    I was a little shocked on Saturday when I was hanging out on the beach behind The Red Bar and a guy had his dog out there letting it run free and it took a big dump in front of someones truck probably 50yds from where the owner was sitting. Not cool to leave the dog unattended for reasons just...

    Anyone wanna put me and a friend up for one night this Saturday 6/30?

    Hey kids! Sorry I havent been around. Life is great. New job, good times... I'm still in PCB right now fighting off the effects of last night (ouch). Me and my friend Ben are still looking for a place to stay tomorrow night. Everything is crazy expensive! I may be calling the person who...

    Anyone wanna put me and a friend up for one night this Saturday 6/30?

    Staying in a friends condo in PCB Wednesday through Friday night and need a room for Saturday night. I know this is a crazy request but thought I'd take a stab and see if anyone had a place to stay for one night and how much it would cost so I dont have to head back to Nashville till Sunday...

    Do you want non-white sand dumped on the beach?

    Re: Do you want brown sand dumped on the beach? Brown? I dont like brown, that's why I come to the Gulf. If it helps to heal the beach though....

    Where did the sand go?

    Ahh... Good thinking! What about teflon? Nothing sticks to teflon! Great, now I cant ever have kids! I guess Ill have no one to carry on the Breen name thanks to sand in the shorts!
  31. Mike B.

    Where did the sand go?

    Ill have to watch myself then when I do have kids and I take them to the beach. Maybe Ill line my trunks with garbage bags! :)
  32. Mike B.

    Where did the sand go?

    Am I old enough for this thread? :) I've never had a problem going back to the condo or hotel after a day on the beach. How do people get so much sand in their shorts, and ultimately in their bed? ;)

    When is school out for your kids?

    I wish I still had summer vactions like school kids do. Curse you day job! Curse you! :) I plan on making it down in June. May is taken up with camping and July I'm going back home to Mass.

    permit for live music

    You guys and gals having any Cinco De Mayo parties tonight? Hopefully I can keep my head in the game and not party too much tonight to make for a happier Friday at work. Probably wont happen though! :)

    Kurt, What Nashvillians do you have living there? Riverotter, Thats a bold chance to take vocally!

    permit for live music

    Awesome! My friend has been playing guitar in bands for about 14 years and is amazing to watch and listen to. The Nashville music scene is so hard to get into and so much business rather than fun and its wearing on him, so he decided its time to go. Myself on the other hand, I need a bit more...

    permit for live music

    How hard is it to get gigs at the bars? A musician friend of mine was over for beers the other night and brought up the idea of moving down there and getting bartending jobs and playing local bar gigs in about a year. Is it hard to get on the bills at the local joints? God knows I'm ready to...

    Springtime

    I think so... I'm seeing her again tomorrow night. :)
  40. Mike B.

    Springtime

    I think its super cool! I wouldnt expect her to always do it, but I know I've dropped a lot of cash taking girls out and its nice to have the favor returned. I was shocked when she stole the check! :)

    Springtime

    Its not too bad here in Nashville yet. All the dogs seem to be doing well! :) (sorry, had to do it). RiverOtter I just got back to work from having lunch with the surfer girl, and she picked up the tab! How cool is she!?
  42. Mike B.

    What new restaurants do you want?

    Call off the search for the surfer girl. I may have hooked one. She's originally from Cali, but lived in FWB for a while and now lives in Nashville. We're meeting for drinks today for the second time this week. ;)

    Driving on the beach

    The new FJ40 wont have the same character as the old ones though. Its like my 84 VW GTI racecar. I've driven brand new GTI's and they are great cars, but they dont have the feel and personality of the old ones. Plus I cant afford a new car right now! Ill stick with my hand me down 96 Blazer...

    Driving on the beach

    Mint condition classic Jeeps and LandCruisers resale values are ridiculous.

    Driving on the beach

    I dont have an extra $15 grand on me right now or I would.

    Driving on the beach

    I have a friend with a cherry restored 74 FJ40 Landcruiser that will go anywhere! We cant even get it stuck in Kentucky mud.

    Driving on the beach

    I was guessing that rust and differential wear would happen over time. In that case it would be cool to get an old Jeep CJ7 as a second car beach cruiser!

    Driving on the beach

    Ahh yes... The surfer girl that I have yet to find. :) Those are actually some great rules. I guess that prevents schmucks like me who come down for a weekend here and there from cruising all over the beach. On a side note, how does that sand effect your trucks as far as sand getting...

    Property owner? Oh well, I guess I'm gonna have to make friends with one so I can drive on the beach! :)

    Driving on the beach

    I think it sounds like great fun and Ill have to give it a try later in the summer on one of my trips, but I do have a question about the environmental effects. Do the oil leaks, coolant leaks, transmission fluid, power steering, etc., not offer a possible problem or is it not enough to make a...
