FOR SALE: My 2007 BMW Z4 3.0si 6 speed manual transmission The best color combination-- Triple black. Selling my mid life crisis car. Bought her a little over 2 years ago from previous owner in Atlanta and enjoyed every single second owning her. I rationalized this purchase because- this was...

Update- All 5 commissioners responded indicating that they don't know of any plans/discussions by the county to outlaw bonfires. Misty- my comments about entitled complainers weren't aimed in jdarg's direction. Not even close actually. The incorporation conversation is one I personally want to...

Just sent the below email to our commissioners... Please ya'll- let's choose our battles. I get the impression that entitled 30Aholes are moving here and are lighting up the BCC and WCSO switchboards complaining about some of the things that make our area so special. PLEASE SEND EMAIL TO OUR...

I lost my black oakleys. They have an O that is removable on each side. Here is a pic... Thx!

I once saw an alligator surfing in the gulf and posted pics here - years back. Back to the topic- I don't condone this illegal behavior. Just pointing out that it isn't necessarily bad for the environment. When the rain raises the levels it naturally breaks through a few times a year.

Definitely not legal and violators should be reported. That said- while illegal- is this really bad for the environment or are we saying it is simply because it is illegal?

Crap. I'm still offering too much, aren't i?

I've dropped my ridiculous offer to $20.

I'll give you $25 for them.

Thanks for sharing some history. Very educational and entertaining. I would love to have been able to see what this place looked like back then. But this matter doesn't seem to be about what made the most sense yesterday as it does what is best for today and tomorrow.

My experience with service providers down here in general. Very frustrating.

Jeff Mc, Assuming the really was for me. I don't have an issue with hunting. Moreso with rhetoric. I think I respect the admission that people like to hunt and are excited about the prospect of bagging a bear rather than arguing under the guise of conservation. Two cents.

Question for my hunter friends who say that their hunting isn't about sport or trophy killing but rather about conservation. Would u support a systematic thinning of the populations by way of biologist/vet administered euthanasia and/or birth control?

I'll give you $75 for them. PM me if interested.

Pretend no one has done anything wrong. In other words- eliminate those factors from the equation. If all that remains is that someone has to give a deposition then - well- a deposition needs to be given. Certainly if there are valid health issues then accommodations might need to be made. But...

I don't enjoy the crowds now that I am in my 40's. But I do remember vividly the time when I would hear things like "biggest party in the hemisphere" or "largest spring break crowd in the US" and considered these reasons to join the fun. I'm of the opinion that a lot of people in the region...

Jimmy Johns started on a college campuses in Central Illinois and then expanded to other Illinois campuses before Jimmy turned it into a very large franchise system. For a week I was a Jimmy John's delivery guy in the 90's. I quit when the campus police wouldn't stop harassing me for driving...

This sounds so cool. Disappointed that it is during school hours which means only vacationing kids can participate.

Beach buggys: I think that it would be a waste of time and money to conduct a study to determine what percentage of users of public beaches rents chairs. Decisions being made right now have nothing to do with how many people use them vs not. It has to do with the wall of commercial chairs...

Doesn't seem so hard to me. Left half of the beach- no rental chairs. Right half of the beach- feel free to rent your chairs. If you put chairs on the left half someone will take a picture of it and send it to the county. Your name is on the chairs. So they will know from whom they will be...

Maybe 80-90% of people who come talk to you about buying golf carts use beach chair rental services- which would make the very first part of your statement true. But let's make sure we do not in any way confuse your cited numbers as a representative sampling of actual demand or usage of rental...

I think it would be helpful if the TDC, BCC, Sheriff, etc would formally and clearly communicate to beach vendors (owners and employees) that the public's right to enjoyment of these public lands trumps their perceived right to utilize these lands for purposes of commerce. The public is...

Not sure about Deo. But I am a dirty.

My house is dirty. Really dirty.

Beachmouse. I want to shake your hand and buy u a beer. For literally years I read and read and read threads about Driftwood Estates. I begged and pleaded that someone dumb it down for me. Each time key players responded with well intended, passionate but I'm afraid- convoluted/confusing...

Now the Snappy Turtle photo. I agree with what you stated, Kurt. I think the ST paint job is tacky and doesn't fit in with what I believe many if not most of us want to see for our area. But here is our challenge. How can we implement rules that would stop someone from choosing decor of the...

Interesting video. The most tangible lesson from it as far as I could tell is that mass deforestation ruined Easter Island. There are of course bigger points made that the island inhabitants valued unimportant material things more than their environment which led to their demise. But here is...

I suspect this might not be the right forum for discussion. Feel free to move or delete if need be. I thought a lot about this after hearing a lot of people voice negative comments about "too big" houses. Part of me shares some of these sentiments. But part of me can't also help but think- who...

When discussing local issues I hear a lot of people challenge others (usually those who don't share an opinion) on how long they've lived here. Reminds me of children who try to end an argument with "I'm older". Growing up where I did usually it was decided on who could kick whose arse but I...

I'm so sorry for added confusion. Yes! I meant behind caring and sharing!!! Go try Al's!!!!

Had three tacos- chicken, pork and rib meat. There was a whole lot of meat on each. Topped with a little slaw (as I requested). I opted for his original sauce from three choices. It was great. Juicy, smoked meat. Very nice sweet and spicy sauce that didn't overtake the taste of the meat- but...

Beating a dead horse- when I said dispersed I meant 393, 83, 283, 395 and then at least one more but maybe two please before we get to WaterSound Pkwy.

Hi Andy. Yes. Sorry. Pls let me clarify. The more N/S running connector roads there are dispersed across 30A (from west to east--- or from left to right if u are looking at a map)........ I'm not saying the connectors run east/west.

Ha. I mean now. R u still there and do u have anything left that I can come and buy and eat?

Anything left today??

How can you say that? Please provide your underlying logic and/or reason and/or data and/or assumptions to support this statement. Here is some of my own to support why I think you are wrong. What is the issue? Let's start by making sure we are both talking about and attempting to address the...

Well I didn't stay in my lurker hole too long. :) Since I just ranted I should probably at least try to get back on topic. Hampton Inn. I don't want one. But it seems very likely I am afraid that it will get a green light. So I think of it kind of like I do the 2 or 3 high rises we have...

Thank you, Bob. I couldn't agree with you more. I believe folks hearts are in the right place but I just can't wrap my head around how we go about things sometimes. We don't want development- only ours. We freak out about traffic but won't allow a stoplight or another North/South thoroughfare...

It sure where to post this or where to look to see of someone might have found it and posted. Someone dear to me lost a Honda key yesterday on the trail accessed on 30A just east of Grayton Beach. Any help getting it back is greatly appreciated! G

Purple flags aren't indictors for sharks who are always present. :)

1.5 years old. Perfect condition, missing nothing. Bought from Best Buy- paid just under $1000. Loved it! Selling only because it looks small in the big room I have it in (eye sight ain't what she used to be) so I am going to buy the same LG TV in a 60 inch or above. Asking $450 OBO Will...

So based on what ya'll have said so far then is there anyone that would dispute this statement--- It is unlikely/rare but it is possible that dolphins could swim into the outfall of Western Lake if/when it is open and the water is deep enough... Thoughts? thanks!!!!

I have seen an alligator surfing (yes) in the Gulf. An insanely large bear eating from my trash can in my driveway. A Bobcat prance in front of me like a show pony in the middle of the road in GB state park. A big fat bull shark swim slowly 3 feet from shore with tourists all around... But I am...

We can measure the number of people getting the message. We can measure the number of visitors we get and the amount of bed tax being collected. Correlation can be inferred. Causation is difficult except for a qualitative argument. I believe in marketing our area and in investing in...

One day only- today, July 4.... FREE HOME DELIVERY of our area’s official MONOPOLY® game--- MONOPOLY®: Visit South Walton Edition!!!! We have cabin fever so we are out and about all day today making deliveries to everyone looking for something fun to do who is smart enough to stay out of this...

I have been thinking about this like crazy since I first saw someone post about it on Facebook. Seaside is wonderful. Many think so. Therefore it is a popular destination which shouldn't come as a big surprise that there will be traffic and lack of parking. What I can't comprehend is how does...

You really do have a way with words, Kurt.

Red Bar. No contest, IMHO. I used to travel extensively for work when I moved here 5 years ago. I searched far and wide for a crab cake I thought was better. Coastal cities known for seafood. Metropolitan areas known for bringing in the best and freshest of anything. I ate a lot of nice crab...

Don't mean to brawl but- shame on me? Like I said- everyone says he was wonderful. But I don't think we should change the name of Scenic Highway 30A anymore than I believe Seaside should change their town's name to honor exceptional people. There is no shame in my position. Agree to disagree.
