For the love of God BR.....not EVERYONE can own or even rent a house on the beach!!!! Your place sounds lovely. But do remember, walking is good for you! My solution for anyone renting back off the beach here at WC is to grab your free bike (you get one free bike per bedroom) and maybe even rent one of thoses kiddie carriers to haul your stuff in!

I am using my friend's laptop right now, but will have one full time starting Thursday....let me know if I can do anything to help out in your decision making on rental plans!!!
I love to walk for exercise, but walking to the beach in 95 degree weather with a boatload of stuff is not my idea of fun. I hate having to pack up every time I want to go to the beach, only to get there and see that I forgot the sunscreen or whatever. Actually there are some nice rentals that are close to the beach that don't cost a lot of money. For example, Dolphin House, rented through Garrett Realty, is one of those. I can count on one hand how many times I've seen that place vacant in the past couple of years. We've stayed there several times before we decided to build. It's south of 30-A and even has a pool.

I'll admit that I am spoiled, though. I am blessed.

I don't mind walking either, thanks goodness I can! BUT, I totally agree with the 95 degree weather and the 99% humidity - it's a killer! And I'm no athlete. I''m one of those that misses the beach but I actually enjoy the snow in Chicago and some cold weather for a few months!

If it is on Buttercup, I can save you the trouble. That is my favorite street in WaterColor and only a short walk to the beach and the pools on the Lake and Gulf.
