counting the days......can't wait to roll down defuniak with my crew :)

I haven't been on the board in a few months and was wondering how the beach was looking. When we visited last summer (mid june) Seaside Beach looked terrible, there were compromised septic systems west of Grayton, poor accommodations at the "LOVE SHACK" but we still had a great time sitting on...

Re: Do you want brown sand dumped on the beach? Maybe I was a little hasty with my suggestion. If the darker sand was used, would it affect turtle nesting? Since light, holes, driftwood,etc can send these poor things down the path of destruction, what would darker sand do to them? :idontno...

Don't feel guilty! Don't let a few bad/bitter apples ruin it for you! :D Come down, kick back, relax and enjoy the breeezes coming in off the gulf!

Re: Do you want brown sand dumped on the beach? With all the rust buckets being driven on the beach most of the sand will be tainted brown anyway from liquids leaking from these heaps! I witnessed a local lose his tailpipe off an old Wagoneer a few weeks ago. Yes, I picked it up and took it to...

um...on dufuniak street in grayton. come on kurt i thought you would know that :bang:

Re: Picture of Panama City Beach I hope all the turtles made it through the storm! :(

As have I. We will have a different outlook when we return, and we WILL be back, next summer.

First of all no one held a gun to your head when you purchased your property, you knew the risks. Second of all, what is it with SOME of the property owners in SoWal and their disdain for the tourists? I don't get it. Is it the renter's next door who are causing the hurricane? Without the...

Oh I see, makes sense. I still have my GraytonBeach.com sticker on the bumper of my Wrangler!

No, the BSW oval, I assume its Beaches of South Walton. Yellow Fin had one on their window next to the entry. The guy at the register had no clue where it came from.

My wife and I walked from Grayton to Seaside June 21st under a full moon. It was great. Lots of light from the moon that night!

I will continue to read up on this subject. Kurt you do a great job. I put the SoWal sticker that a picked up at Grayton General on my Tahoe today. Great design, but I would prefer the BSW oval to go with my OBX sticker. Any plans to produce one?

What if we are under a new moon situation and there isn't moon light? Is he S.O.L.? It's a marvelous night for a moon dance.......

Do these things know that the Dunes are off limits? Isn't there a law against disturbing the dunes?

[The numbers of turtles on our beaches are dwindling each year. Their protection is the best reason for not leaving holes, tents, chairs, or other items on the beach. More info - http://www.graytonbeach.com/turtles.html Not to leave holes? Doesn't this make it easier for them to nest?

Are these turtles endangered? Protected? Make a good soup?What's the hubbub bub? From what I have read so far they don't seem to be very bright creatures. Disoriented from light? I will continue to read up on this.

I read somewhere on the board that it's turtle season in Sowal. Can someone please explain this?

Everyone stay safe. I hope Dennis fizzles before it makes landfall!

So you found you a nice solid gig with state gov't? Sweet! :clap_1:

Glad you caught it, some of the "player buyers" are still trying to figure it out! :floor:

My Daddy is an OLE MISS grad, same as his father before him. Did you go to Bama or are you like 99% of bama fans who never set foot in a classroom at UAT

When I was there in mid June I counted 7 or 8 on Grayton Beach (counting mine). The day we left one remained and it was owned by a local who lives there full time and owned the house next to ours. Far from being congested and far from taking all the "prime" locations. Anywhere in SoWal is prime...

<yawn> pass the bourbon

I was in Montgomery shortly after Tubberville left OLE MISS for the Plains. I was at a men's clothing store on Vaughn Rd near old Cloverdale. The owner noticed the OLE MISS tag on the front of my car and proceeded to ask me what I thought about Tubby going to Auburn. I said something to the...

All in good fun! Landlocked, what's Tubby going to do this year? I am glad to see him do well at Auburn. Great Coach! Bama will get one some day.

The BEAR is worm dirt, I believe we are .500 against Coach "deer in the headlights" Shula

No one has anything against anyone else having fun, being comfortable, and relaxing. But there are just too many people enjoying our beaches now and something's got to give. Tents on the beach, along with all the stuff that comes with them, have gotten to be a real nuisance. Not only for the...

LMAO Landlocked! That was pretty funny! JB, nice attempt at humor. Don't quit your day job. But we all know that Auburn is the TRUE football power in Bummer. Good luck to everyone that may have to deal with Dennis in the next few days!

What's the problem with using tents on the beach? When my family spent a week in Grayton 3 weeks ago we used a tent. I even asked the sheriffs deputy on duty if it was ok to leave it overnight and he told me as long as I had it tied down securely and took all my chairs and beach toys with me(to...

Well my wife always tried to help out, ALWAYS buying instead of browsing. HA HA! I forgot that the two stores had closed in Watercolor. I have purchased several shirts in those stores the last couple of years for my dad and father-in-law (we are usually there father's day weekend)

My point was that most of the businesses that closed seemed to be concentrated in the Grayton Beach area. Seaside, Watercolor, Blue Mtn areas seem to be doing just fine. Just curious why so many in a concentrated area had closed.

My family and I just returned from a weeks stay in Grayton. I was surprised at all the closings in The Shops of Grayton, Blue Luna, Red Fish, etc. What's up? Just curious. We always have a great time down there! We have already placed a deposit on our house for next year.
