It seems to me only common sense that if you post an opinion on a board full of enthusiasts and your opinion runs contrary to that of the majority, you might run into a few disagreements.

I, for example, wouldn't hop onto a Harley Davidson board and tell them that they're spending too much money on their Hogs, that they could get a perfectly good Schwinn and what are they thinking! Nor would I pretend surprise if they came back at me with assertions that I was misguided in my opinion.

So I'm not fooled by this sheep who comes into our pasture and plaintively asks us to explain what the SoWal hype is all about because he doesn't understand and truly wants to. What I think this sheep-in-wolf's-clothing wants is to get us all steamed up under the collar. He knows we rise to the bait so easily when our regard for SoWal is challenged. We must be very entertaining to him.

BTW, all the above is strictly my opinion and you can make of it what you will. Agree or not. I won't whine if it doesn't meet your expectations.
Assess as you wish, I have a posting history that would run in the face of your claims and, in the end, any poster is what his history says of sheeps.

For your enlightenment, I develop real estate (as purported in my first post here) and developers of real properties are also purveyors of the buying intellect.

The fact that stacked housing and carbon dense developments are successful is a moot point. I can read the development history, and have, of Manhattan Island if coastal properties followed the same psychological buying and living profiles. They simply do not.

If posters get their noses out of joint, or over joints, due to this enquiry of mine, so wal be it. As I have learned long ago, the bees fly only when the nest is rattled.

Oterwise, I shall retire to my library of inane tomes, staid and boring novellettes of Russian authors and jack off, thank you. :blush:

anyone who loves this place knows that as soon as you get your feet in the sand and look out over the gulf...there is nothing else...it all goes away...
Maybe but most of you have to return to live, sleep and eat in the dense underforest of housing called SoWal. Perhaps you can bring along your surreal experience to cloud the fact that you just heard your neighbor fart.

And both of you were in your houses, windows down. :eek:

"40. Are You Picky About Spelling And Grammar?"

Mermy, the only folks I see that pick at your spllings nad gremmar are the ones that can't keep up with the debate that is swirling all around them but, of which, they lost the context of days ago.

So I went back and read the sheeps post with a more clear head after a cup of joe this morning, and I realized that maybe, just maybe I was a bit harsh on him. He was just stating his dis-pleasure with all of the new development that has taken place over the last many years. That is his opinion and I should not critize anothers opinion even I don't agree with it. The point that I was trying to make with my post, was that even with all of the development it is still paradise to me. I can overlook all of the "bad", to find the good. The good to me is still the "natural" beauty and charm of the place.
Now we come to an answer that is usable. You accept the trade-off, admitting there is one. Note few on this thread have admitted so and that is certainly what I see, a trade-off and this is what I am trying to understand.

I forage around Cap San Blas and there is certainly a trade-off there. No significant retail, The Piggly Wiggly is The Pig's disgust, porn comes brown paper boxed and calls itself "The Dozen Cheerleaders Who Swapped Stories and Smoked Ciggies In The School Restroom"

It is dark as a sheep's unhighheeled hoof at night and quiet to the point of near distraction. If you yell "PARTY", folks get out there clam knives. :shock:

Thanks for the response.

I'm listening. Speak, oh, Rajah of Recreation.
Where can you look at azure seas, relax and let the world go by? You seriously asking this question, for one-tenth, hell I can think of hundreds of places you can do this for free.

But at the price of $2M+ for beachfront developed, I can do the same for well under a million in many coastal places in Florida alone.

So is being in SoWal worth over $21M, not to me sheep sheckles. YbeachMV
