    Do you want drilling off Walton County beaches?

    If we cant start developing alternative fuels then absolutely. Like somebody just said if you drill close to shore and on land you dont have problems. I live at Inlet beach, i never saw any tar balls. Theres oil down there everywhere, dont doubt theres always leaks in the gulf floor. Weve been...

    Any issues with man of war in sowal?

    I saw one as I was walking the beach today. They are not going to hurt you that bad, just sting a little. Ive had them wash down the back of my wetsuit while surfing, thats bad. Ive never not got in the water because of any sea life in my 51 years living here.

    Are bay catfish edible?

    This is what we do, mostly with river cat though. Cut around the neck and pull their skin off with pliers. My grandaddy always told me to soak them in buttermilk before frying.

    Best Hot Cheese Dip in the World

    A friend of ours makes a good dip and gave us the recipe. Its basically the same but instead of jalapenos add artichokes and she would sprinkle more parmesan cheese over the top in a caserole dish. Then bake it til bubbly, then turn it on broil and brown the parmesan on top. Good stuff.

    Rumors recently heard near 30-A east end

    I stood in line at Panera bread at Pier Park next to Karl Rove and talked to him for about 3 minutes or so. There might be some truth to that rumor.

    Rumors recently heard near 30-A east end

    Currently a CVS is going up in front of the Winn Dixie by Carillon Beach. I talked to the real estate man that worked on selling the property and he told me that TGI Fridays and Cracker Barrel was looking for land in that area near the beginning of 30-A. Just thought i would share.

    Fudpuckers coming to Santa Rosa Beach

    Its funny how everyone doesnt want 30 A to be like Destin and PCB when most of you are the ones to blame for it. Ive lived in Inlet Beach for 50 years in 4 different houses and remember when nobody lived on 30A. Now the people that come here in droves complain about progress. We have always...

    Updates about Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport (NWFBIA)

    I was told by a friend of mine in marketing that the 4 cities SW will fly into are BWI, Orlando, Nashville, and Houston or Dallas. he thought they were leaning to Houston. Im friends with a few of the people in the know and they told me last march that SW was a done deal. It was during the time...

    Why won't Panama City support fine dining?

    Please dont confuse Panama City with Panama City Beach. PCB has better restaurants and bars than 30-A and destin combined and it isnt even close. Theres nothing that beats RedBar on 30-A, fine dining or not. Fine dining is such a primadonna term anyway. If a restaurant isnt a good place to drink...

    Red Robin coming to Pier park

    I emailed the person sending me Pier Park emails about Fresh Market. They said "Cannot commit right now, discussions are on going." I talked to some Simon employees about Fresh market and they told me that the building was built to be a grocery store with all the infrastructure in place. They...

    Build vs Buy?

    Yeah, I shouldnt call people out. Ive done "small" sheetrock jobs and its a very messy profession.

    Build vs Buy?

    Sheetrock: If finished and awaiting paint then it should be smooth no signs of the tape no bubbles or holes in the mud. Speaking of mud it shouldn't be all over the floor. It seems that if your slopping mud all over the floor your flying thru a job and not paying attention. I'm not saying...

    Lunch in Apalachicola/Mexico Bch. area

    The best place in Appalach is the main street restaurant on the corner by the only light in town. Better than Boss and less expensive. Boss is nothing special, just hype. Great oyster bar and the biggest Grouper sandwich Ive ever eaten. Try the fried mushrooms, they were unreal. They were sliced...

    Shades at Inlet Beach

    I go there 2-3 times a month but mostly sit at the bar unless Im there for lunch. Good pub, sports bar type atmosphere. I never eat entrees, mostly wings, sandwiches, love the wedge.

    Local Winery?

    Your wrong dude. It depends on what you like. I dont like wine but I do like muscadine wine which is the major grape grown in Florida. It all depends on what you like because at the end of the day one grape wont get you any more drunk than another grape. I know your type you are probably a cork...

    graffiti carillon

    You can order half orders of all entrees. I dont know about lunch but I thought it was very reasonable for dinner. Somebody on here said to try the fried green tomatoes with crawfish appetizer, I did and it was awesome.

    Starbucks closing in Rosemary?

    Theres 2 in Pier Park, 1 on the boardwalk and the one in target. Even though I live in Inlet beach, I own a condo at Calypso across from pier Park. I pretty much live in the Destin to Hathaway bridge area, as I use one area as much as the next. People in PCB hate to be lumped with Panama City...

    Starbucks closing in Rosemary?

    Im not sure what you are saying, which one doesnt have any business? The only one i know of in PC is by the mall, it should be doing good because of location even though they should have a drive thru there. Please tell me which one doesnt do good because Im curious. Like I said the Pier Park one...

    Starbucks closing in Rosemary?

    The one in Target and the one on the boardwalk at Pier park kick butt. They have one in the condo thats ran by the Wyndham, I have no idea how that one does. Which Starbucks in PCB do you speak of? I hate to see the one gone at Rosemarys because thats right by my house.

    Bayou Bills rebuilt?

    Theres one in Panama City beach but not in Panama City, its on the Bay-Walton County line in front of Winn Dixie. The foods always pretty good but the service is hardly ever good. Last time i went they comped our whole meal because we didnt get waited on til I blew a blood vessel.

    Taqueria El Calentano on 331

    After reading the comments we went there Saturday night. It was OK, prices a little high. We love to ride over the hathaway bridge into PC to Los Antojitos. Much better food and prices. The Mex place in Destin by Old Tyme Pottery is better too. JMO.

    Grayton Beach Park Development

    Ive been waiting for this awhile now. They are supposed to take out the road from front office to campsites and return it back to wetlands. I also heard they were going to add sewage.

    Pier Park Borders

    Wow, I think Pier Park is so much better than Destin Commons. At Dc there are no good restaurants, no bars, and no place for a man to shop. Im not a country boy so Bass Pro Shop doesnt interest me. Weve been having a blast at PP. Weve been doing all our shopping, eating and partying in Destin...

    Mexican Restaurant Recommendation near Grayton?

    Am i the only person that thought Cocos was nasty, and Don Pedros is not much better. I live in Inlet beach and we like Los Rancheros at Edgewater in PCB. If you have the time go over hathaway Bridge in PCB, about a 1/2 mile past on right is Los Antojitos, one of my favorite anywhere. The one in...

    All the charm of Whataburger

    I was so glad when Pier park opted out of Johnny Rockets and got a five Guys, they are the best. I wish Grand Boulevard wouldve done the same.

    Senor Mojitos at Seacrest Beach?

    OK, thanks. I thought it was a new place coming here. You can find out alot about new businesses coming by checking who is hiring at Monster. Well anyway, we could sure use a good Mexican restaurant here on 30-A :blush:

    Senor Mojitos at Seacrest Beach?

    PC area

    Buy in PCB, Panama City is old and dumpy. I was born and raised in the cove and moved to the beach the day I graduated high school. Theres nothing in PC, not alot of restaurants, bars, parks, sidewalks. West end of bay County is nice and close to SoWal, plus you can see the beach on your drive...

    30A's lazy days are gone

    I remember 10 years ago when we would ride past Seaside, put it in 4 wheel drive and cross the dunes where Watercolors hotel is at. We would go down on the beach and have bonfires and sometimes sleep on the beach. Man we had fun out there, there was no light and the stars would look like they...

    Margaritaville?

    They dont have a definite openning date yet but its getting close. I think back porch opens this week, they had their walk thru Friday night. There is still alot to do at Pier park now, the place is flowing with people. This place will be unreal, i cant believe all the great bars and restaurants...
