Greetings from under the snow in Canada! What a beautiful and special vacation spot this is for us! We have made Blue Mountain Beach an annual trip for our family, even getting married on the beach last year!! This community is so special to us and one day we hope to make It our home. For now, we rent glorious vacation homes for 2 weeks a year and pretend like we are locals, amazed at the laid back and friendly southern hospitality that this amazing place provides us with each time we visit. I am so happy to have found this board so that I can still feel connected even though I am not there. To the locals, you are truly blessed to be able to call this place your home!:wave:
:welcome:I'm not exactly a local but I can get there in about 6hrs.:wave:

Wow!! A former Canadian on the boards?? I am impressed Ash! There is only one downfall when It comes to visiting Blue Mountain Beach though....there is no hockey talk over a cup of coffee at any local establishments!!

Not exactly. I noted six miles South of you. I lived in Northern MN for 21 years. The company I worked for hired a bunch of Canadians from towns just across the border.
Warroad MN is called Hockeytown USA and has something like 6 people from there that were on olympic hockey teams.
I stopped following hockey when MN wussed out and sold the Northstars to Texas.

Just have to look for the right people! I grew up playing. In fact, Pat Quinn was a family friend and was the one who started me back in '76. Still play to this day, and I'm 45!

Okay, Since I've posted or looked at dang near everything in every forum....here goes.

My real name is Kelly, Aquarius (although not a big fan of water) Originally from Georgia, but have lived in Tenn., and Texas (lots of relatives there).
turned the big 40 in February. Married my dream biker guy in 2002. He is the maintenance chief at the Terrace at Pelican Beach.
I have a step son 18 yr. old (he was 9 when I "had" him):biggrin:. Visited here in 2003 and moved here later that year.

Chances are if you advertise in the Walton Sun, I either know you, have talked to you on the phone or know OF you. I was the receptionist for a while, wrote a column each month, then moved to the advertising dept.
I had my first child at 38 and then another at 39. Both very unexpected, but everything I ever wanted in life:wub:
Just left my job at the Sun to be a full time Mom...thought I was poor before!:roll: But I totally trust that God takes care of us, not us. Hopefully, He'll provide some clients through my website, calvertextra.com and I can give Him a hand.:blush:

I first visited SoWal.com after one of my coworkers kept mentioning it so I lurked a lot, posted a little. Now that I'm home all day, I still lurk a lot, but now I post a lot too. Being home all day with 2 kids gets a little confining so
the people on here help keep me connected, teach me a lot, and most always make me laugh.
SoWal.com-the most fun you can have with your computer!

Live in sowal full time (yeah). Used to be a lurker, have come out of the closet (so to speak) full blown.

Met some amazing people on here and in real life and have made some good real world friendships. :wub:

Is that better kurt or am I gonna get zapped again?
Nice chicklets! You have had some comical posts. I'm a fan.
