Pokey, This is a house that may fit the bill...the owner is here on Sowal too. I love the website and bookmarked it for future reference.

Great minds work alike! I just pm'd Pokey that site too! :clap_1:
No offense to the owners of that house (it's a great house), but I wouldn't want my family crossing 30-A close to 395 in the summer. I run, and I can't tell you how many times I've almost been hit by a vehicle near that house. It's in a really congested area of 30-A.gotothebeachmom said:

Actually it's on the North side, MM.

No problem. Hopefully, the traffic won't be an issue. It's a great house!:clap_1:
Again, I have almost been run over several times in that area. Once someone almost ran me down, I was knocked onto the hood of their car, and then they gave me the middle finger and yelled at me for almost damaging their car! Excuse me, the sign says, "Yield for pedestrians." They almost killed me, and they're flipping me off?gotothebeachmom said:
My sister owns in Seagrove and is also a runner (actually a marathoner). When someone ignores her at a pedestrian crossing, she bangs on their car as hard as she can. They can't do anything (except kill her) because they know they're violating the law.

BR, you need to take a trip to Rome. If you've ever experienced Italian traffic, you will never, ever have problems with the piddly traffic here. This how the Italians (successfully) cross the road. You wait for a small lull in the traffic, put your foot into the zebra crossing, and then maintain (evil) eye contact with oncoming traffic. Eye contact is what it's all about. Drivers can sense it when a pedestrian is unafraid of them and by gamma waves alone they will yield to you. They know that you are a pedestrian who walks with purpose and they will not mess with you. You have to let them know that in the crossing lane, you rule, not them! The Italians do this all the time and only the really crazy ones ever get run over. Really. Our condo is just down the street from the 395 intersection and I try this trick all the time and traffic, like the Red Sea, always parts for me. (and no, it's not because I'm a two-ton Tessie
).

Your sister's name must be Phay because I remember someone by that name posting last year that she beats on car hoods.
