    What are your Top Sowal Restaurants?

    Why is no one mentioning Borago? Its been my favorite but I haven't been to Seagrove in 2 years. I hope the quality hasn't falling.

    Red snake with black rings - what kind is it?

    Red and yellow, kill a fellow, red and black a friend of Jack. So if red meets yellow it is a coral snake, and if red meets black it is ok. Also, coral snakes do not have fangs like most people think of fangs, so it has to be attached for a period of time to get its toxin in you.

    When should notice to vacate begin?

    In most states, once notice is given and the notice tiime runs, there still must be a court hearing to remove a tenant from a dwelling.

    Auburn football sucks!!!!!

    If Auburn football was a stock, I certainly wouldn't be buyin'. Saban is killing Tubby on the recruiting front. For that reason alone, Auburn still has a ways to fall. Arkansas, on the other hand, is at the start of a multi-year up swing.

    Other than the beach, this is my favorite place in Watercolor. Thanks

    What do you look for in a vacation rental?

    Watercolor's pools close at 7, which is ridiculous I might add. Does somebody on this board have enough juice to fix that for me?

    SoWal Restaurant Comment Etiquette

    There are two restaurants that I will not go to specifically b/c of the multitude of negative comments on SoWal. It was not one bad review, it was many. I appreciate the honesty.

    Your traditions when vacationing in Sowal

    How long is 30a from end to end? I've never spent anytime on the western most section. The farthest west we go is to Amore. I've riden a beach crusier there from Eastern lake before.

    People from Arkansas make their residence in Florida so that they don't have to pay state income tax. I have two friends whose "residence" is Sandestin.

    Hurricane Gustav

    I sure don't want Gustav to hit SoWal, but 1 model has New Orleans as a direct hit with a Cat 3 or higher. That would not be good.

    SoWal Favorites - Where?s your favorite place to unwind?

    Riding a bike in the morning or the beach at night.

    Your traditions when vacationing in Sowal

    We leave Arkansas Sat. morning at 3:30 am and meet up with my bro and his family at Seagrove Market around 1 pm so I can get my fried grouper sandwich ASAP. Next, we check in and fight over rooms. That night we eat pizza from Amore'. After that, its a free for all.

    Tropical Storm Fay

    From the looks of the radar and the latest storm track, Fay is now going to the NW and SoWal is going to miss the rain for the most part.

    Looking for Watercolor rental w/pool

    That is true that there are very few, but when we were down a few weeks ago, we looked at two that are for sale but that are not rentals at this time (They were not furnished). One of those was on Pine Needle. It had one of the largest private pools that I have ever seen around Seagrove.

    Driver Pulls Gun on Cyclists This Morning

    Floridagirl must not think much of herself. She's only given $50 to her campaign. That's the only contribution, I might add. If she could only find that guy with the orange truck.

    Western Lake & Gulf kayak tours

    Yep. I think you can find the info on the Watercolor website.

    What's the quickest way to Atlanta?

    Quickest way to Atlanta from SoWal. Going to I-85. Trying to find a better way to Baltimore. Have been going I-10 to I-95, but I-95 is insane. Takes 17 hours that way.

    No longer an owner!!!!!!!!

    4. South Walton is nice, but I realized there are lots and lots of times when being in another vacation spot would be much nicer. For instance, winter months are much too cold (air and especially water temperature) to enjoy the beach. May/June I never could sit on my porch without getting eaten...

    Double Reds this morning?

    What time do they change the flags in the morning? They were double red yesturday, starting early in the afternoon. I had hoped thet would be down graded when I got tro the beach this morning. I rented a paddle board for the week and would like to ride some waves. I got enough of Western...

    Satellite photo of Watercolor

    Yeah I looked at that and you can see part of Scrub Oak Circle but you can not see the street numbers.

    Satellite photo of Watercolor

    Where is an updated satellite photo of Watercolor with the names of the roads in place? Google's is really outdated. We are staying at 213 Scrub Oak and I wanted to see how close it is to the pool.

    Whats the fastest way to Niceville?

    I'm in Seagrove. Go to the bridge in Destin or go through Freeport? Also, whats it like early in the morning versus after lunch. I'm thinking about playing golf at Eglin.

    New food rec's

    I'm sorry. I've given Fish Out of Water 4 chances and have yet to be impressed, esp. for the price. Will not go there again. Borago, on the other hand, I love.

    What do you look for in a vacation rental?

    we have been coming to Seagrove for almost 10 years too. We have always rented homes with private pools. Never looked at ones that didn't. This year we rented a home in Watercolor that obviously does not have a pool but the pool is only 100 yards or so away. We wanted to try Watercolor but...

    Work out facilities?

    Staying in watercolor. Are there any work out facilities close by that will allow me to pay for a week? I would just run the bike paths as I have in the past but I have developed a severe case of planar fasciitis and can only do low impact stuff, i.e. elliptical machine.

    best directions from I-65?

    331 may be shorter but the 55 route is faster. Less traffic. Plus you stay on interstate longer so the 80mph speed helps you catch up on time.

    Stepped on a SNAKE......pic.....

    You are wrong about the cottonmouth. They will chase you. I grew up on a lake in the Arkansas delta and worked many summers on rice farms. I have been chased by more cottonmouths (or water moccasins) then I could even begin to count. They are the most aggressive pit viper in the US.

    Shell Island

    If you rent a boat be sure and check in early. They over book the boats when busy and if you get there after too late, there will be no boat. Happened to me I was furious to say the least. The rental place acted like they had never heard of us. we went to another place that had a boat...

    Can these be rented? Can these be rented anywhere in SoWal? Yellowfin, maybe? They really look cool. If not where do I go to get a demo?

    Boat rentals

    The one piece of advice I would give you is if you rent a pontoon, check in early. Many of the rental companies over book and if you get there 15 minutes b/f cast off time your boat maybe gone. it happened to me. We found a boat from another place, but I was more than a little upset.

    Fishing lessons?

    Go with Yellowfin in Seagrove. I didn't know anything about beach fishing until I went to them. They will show you what you need and tell you how to use it. And they rent any gear that you may be missing. Its not a real complicated endeavor. The hardest part is figuring out what kind of...
