Walton County Beaches Opening May 1

Continue doing the right thing when you visit…you don’t live here all the time and have no clue on what goes on.. if you did you’d feel the same way we do...It’s easy to close your eyes to things or not pay attention when you’re on vacation it’s a different story when you live somewhere full-time. If anyone has invested in the area it’s the people who own homes and businesses here…

Don't kid yourself. There are a lot of people who live here who never go to the beach, never been to Eden, can't pronounce Choctawhatchee... . I wish they'd go back to where they came from.

If you don't appreciate the tourism piece of Walton County and can come up with a way to replace the tax base and revenues, lets hear it. Or you can leave?

So the beaches will be open but no vacation rentals?

That is correct. Vacation rentals have been suspended indefinitely by the Governor.

It’s funny, you show contempt for the very people who grew up here, raise their kids and work here. I’ve been here for 20 years and I couldn’t live with myself destroying those livelihoods. I can only presume that you’re a transplant, because who other than that would begrudge the real locals of their livelihood. Besides that kind of petty, ignorant anger flies in the face of what the whole place is about, my friend.
You’re a typical “Let them eat cake” tool.

And it’s Redfisher, sweetness. Spelling, like compassion for your fellow man, doesn't seem to be your long suit.
