You sure about that? What about WindMark Beach?

Buy you own modem. You can get a higher quality one without having to rent theirs. You should be able to check compatability on Mediacoms website..

Seems I've seen an upside down American flag in the avatar of a frequent Sowal lounge poster. Not condoning Camping on the Gulf but nobody has had an issue with that. An upside down flag signifies that America is in distress, correct?

I don't see trolleys mentioned here. Tourist Development Tax

Damn right! We are an SUV and full size truck community! Stand your ground people of Sowal and rise up! Only you...can prevent free enterprise.

Then you took what I wrote the wrong way.

This is mass transit not public transportation. It serves a very finite group in the private sector on one road. I equate it with public subsidized Uber or taxi service to and from the bar. I am supportive of the public transportation for the workforce from the north end to south end; that...

Since it only serves 30a, public funding should be out of the question. I don't live on 30a so not interested in helping pay for it. Thanks but no.

PM me details. Thanks

Do they not go to the elementary schools anymore? That's what made it special for the local kids.

Fraticello or Fraticelli?

In summation, some BFO's are banning the people that clean their houses, maintain their landscaping, repair their plumbing, keep the a/c and heat operating, keep the water flowing, serve their food and drink, pick up their trash, educate their children (I'm sure I missed a couple) from using the...

Paging Dr. Freud.... Paging Dr. Sigmund Freud. ‍⚕️

"Welcome to Walton County. Home of Reggie Gaskins Beach." That should work pretty good.

Ha!

When you buy beach front it comes with a lot of stiputaltions and encumbrances. BFO's can't walk on the dunes or touch (trim or thin )the vegatation at the foot or is it called toe of the dune and seaward without a permit. I'm prertty sure endangered beach mice and sea turtles have more rights...

So twisted. BFO worked with legislators to pass HB631 and are now bitching about it. You have entered the twilight zone.

The alternative to CU. #custandinginwater

I thought this was going to be a producrive thread for a minute. More blog material I suspect. Oh well. Aaaand bye.

7). BFO's out bidding the county to block additional public beach. 8). Everyone building monster houses to increase occupancy for rentals. 9). Code enforcement. 10). Sense of entitlement and lack of respect by all. 11). Lack of adequate infrastruture. The TDC is only part of the problem...

Wow!

Dang FBB. You "liked" my post then took it away. Are you just being coy?

What Bob Wells said and to ad, information from the sponsor of the bill is interesting. That is all. Not playing a "gotcha" game. Nothing to read into guys.

Correct. It was a question.

The irony is that they are actually unifying us to a degree. Me, Poppaj, Lake View Too and some others don't agree on much but on this topic we actually share some common ground (no pun intended).

Yes my link was bad. This was mentioned several times and I aknowleged this. I don't know why it didn't copy over correctly. I can't go back and edit/fix it. My post was in reply to the 5th Amendment Taking Clause comment made by Poppaj. The quoted response that included the bad link was "the...

Are you okay?

Pounce! Links bad. Get over it. I was referencing anothor posters comment. Take a bath and calm down.

Maybe Quicker Liquor?

There use to be a VFW post of the south side of 98 towards Inlet. I think it got in the way of developement.

Is that Plan B (if needed)? Public Use Requirement In Kelo v. City of New London, Connecticut, 545 U.S. 469 (2005), the Supreme Court held that general benefits which a community would enjoy from the furthering of economic development is sufficient to qualify as a "public use."

You sound very self aware. That's good.

Reggie! Is this you?!

Both wrong. It's a "Voyeur Index". You should be able to extrapolate why without explanation.

I agree FactorFiction if I can tweek your wording a bit. The CU conflict will not improve the legacy of the beaches of Walton County. 30A and South Walton are relatively recent monikers for the area. Hardly legacy unless you are subject to marketing campaigns.

...meanwhile...a Hindu and a Buddhist were sitting on a beach reflecting on dharma....

I have been labed an activist in that blog. Now that is hillarious! I have to wonder what the criteria was to earn that title?

The houses were more modest. Not setback to setback and reaching the 50' height mark. I wish the south side of 30A was never touched but too late for that. What a shame.

That was before beach front houses were built on the dunes.

Is mosquito control handing out the black balls this year?

FBB, I hope you didn't pass out holding your breath waiting for a response. I thought you'd be headed up to Bruce, not assigning me homework. That's what the attorneys get paid to do. How the hell am I suppose to know what the Muscogee Nation will claim? Go ask them yourself. H.B. 631 defines...

Since you disagree with the Muscogee Nation, perhaps your debate should be held with them. I encourage you to enlighten them on their their culture and history so they can better understand it.

I was having real dialogue and you wanted to make jokes and dismissed a challange which is fair and reasonable. This is bigger than Daniel and only he can speak for himself. Why would expect anyone else to answer for him? Why are you seeking compromise if your are so certain of the outcome...

This subject is extremely serious. I can set my wit and sense of humor aside when appropriate. You can sell your property when appropriate and walk away from it all if you so choose. The locals, not so much.

Why don't you find out for yourself?

True Bob. I guarantee that not one will accept my challenge. It's tough to be tough when faced with reality.

In fact, I challenge any of the BFO that take issue with CU to take a ride up to Bruce and debate any member of the Muscogee Nation of Florida over the issue of CU and defend why they shouldn't have access to all of the beaches of Walton county.

The indigineous peoples ( yes the native Americans that have been here long before you or I or our ancestors) of Walton County fully support customary use. What's your point?

I'm a little confused by all of this. I read that H.B. 631 established the procedure for adopting a customary use ordinance. Part of that procedure is going to court to affirm cu. That's whats happening. It's now in the hands of the courts. What's the issue? What is this converastion on Sowal...

Something doesn't feel right about this entire thread. Can't put my finger on it but it doesn't seem genuine for some reason. Reads more like a game of chess rather than a discussion. Lots of subtle taunts and manipulation.
