    Spring Break 2023 Updates & Info

    We are catching many of them & working w S Walton police. We can confront them in the store but can’t physically search them in the store, only police can do this. They also have to leave the store w merchandise before we can charge them…so it’s not as easy as it seems. We send videos to SWPD &...

    I work in Seaside & it’s so depressing to see these young kids shoplifting every day.

    Best fishing spots nearby Santa Rosa?

    Across the Bay at the new Grady Brown park (on the left heading N) is also a good wade fishing spot and also has parking, bathroom & picnic areas.

    Fishing charters or boat rentals- Lake Powell?

    Big Daddies kayak rentals will probably drop off at the public access. It's one of our fav spots to kayak. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of fishing in Lake Powell anymore ...the fish pretty much disappeared after Shark's Tooth Golf Course was built. If your guy is into fly-fishing or wants to...

    Ascension Sacred Heart Emerald Coast to host Covid-19 Vaccination Clinic in Seaside Aug 24

    Thank you Theresa for posting this vaccine event. I hope the younger generations will take this seriously and get vaccinated. I spoke to a physical therapist working at Sacred Heart in Panama City yesterday and she says working there in the covid wing is heart breaking. She told me about the 5...

    Misc South Walton Minimum Wages

    Was corrected by PC Beach Target staffer that they are making $15 hourly and she told me that they were given $500 hazard bonus to continue working when Covid hit.

    Misc South Walton Minimum Wages

    I agree with Matt & Jim. Hourly pay is mostly pitiful here, especially for the cost of living/groceries as you stated above, Jim T. I needed a part time job as backup in 2009 and it paid $9 per hour. 12 years ago!!! Employers who think their jobs are easy or "fun" so don't have to pay much, need...

    Walton County Vaccine Rollout Info & Updates

    Please have patience with the County Health folks. They are doing pretty well under the circumstances and it's not their fault they received such a small amount of doses. I got lucky in calling for my elderly Mom. (I called 38x) She is headed to heart surgery this month, so thank you from the...

    Grayton Motor Lodge

    The reason that our area even looks halfway decent and is not filled with towering condos like Destin is because local residents educated themselves on the issues, environment, got involved, went to countless meetings, put in blood, sweat and tears and stood up to developers. (thank goodness...

    Walton County COVID19 Updates

    Read that clinics doing the rapid tests are not being included in total numbers. So Doc Smiley's has been getting 6-7 positives for last 3 days (Christine Smiley posted on FB) but doesn't know why they're not included. Seaside is reporting rude behavior (I read the letter they sent out to...

    Walton County COVID19 Updates

    Walton County COVID19 Updates

    Just got a text from a friend that Cabana in Seaside closed for a few days...? Seaside's last post on website is June 22 but no news of store closing, but does say 4th of July events (fireworks & parade) are "suspended." Anyone confirming this?

    Vacation Rental News & Info Regarding COVID-19

    It all sounds so very nice and proper but as a previous condo cleaner, I'm shaking my head in disbelief, that all these processes will actually happen. Yes, most cleaners have to purchase their own supplies, vacuums, mops etc. They don't make enough money to say buy a new mop head for each unit...

    Ending to Suspension of Vacation Rentals ?

    All my friends in Atlanta telling me that they are still locked down or working from home. Possibly an effect to the numbers? Could it be some people have come to a different conclusion about what is personally safe, which is different than their governor?

    Do You See Violations Of The Governor's Suspension Of Rentals?

    You're right, I just went to look at Rosemary's site and was able to look at a few rentals where you can see dates booked in near future on their calendars. They are also running specials for vacations "leaving before May 23".

    Walton County Beaches Opening May 1

    Just watched the last half hour of the WCCC meeting. I wish I hadn't...the level of ignorance is astounding. They spent quite a bit of time arguing about whether sitting in a chair as opposed to lying on a towel would be any safer, or if you're fishing but sitting in a chair with an umbrella...

    Do You See Violations Of The Governor's Suspension Of Rentals?

    I understand, but how would you know if they're homeowners or renters unless you ask them? Which I am not about to do. From a safety perspective, what would be the difference or being owner or renter if they're coming from a more infected area? Either way, they could possibly be asymptomatic...

    Do You See Violations Of The Governor's Suspension Of Rentals?

    I rode my bike through WaterColor yesterday and of the 30 or so cars parked in front of houses only 2 were FL tags, others GA, TX, LA & TN. I'm guessing owners in town. I'm certainly not going to go ask! At some point you just have to trust that people are doing the right thing OR assume that...

    Yellow flies are here! Have fun hunting them!

    I’m a magnet it seems, ugh. I’ve done quite a lot of research on the excellent Entomology pages of the Univ of FL. Interesting bits (not bites!) I learned...yellow flies are visual hunters. They hang out in the shade, under your porch or shrubbery, then when they see movement they swoop in for...

    Say "Hello" to our little friend.....

    Since I moved here 7 years ago, I have done hours and hours of research on yellowflies. I am one of those people who can be outside with 100 other people and will be the only one who gets bit by mosquitos. So you can imagine what it's like with those yellowflies chasing me - yes, I'm the lunatic...
