This is so much fun reading everyone's response. OK have y'all ever been to the shacky place on the road to Panama City? I think it is called Front Beach Road maybe??? I am sure you locals have. It is close to the east end of 30A and has really good donuts and fabulous cheeseburgers. Anyway one of my favorite things to do there is wake up about 8:00 which is sleeping in and laying in a comfy, high thread count sheet bed with either my husband and if he could not go my daughter or one of my sisters and padding downstairs and making some coffee. Maybe we make it back up to the bed with our coffee or we walk to some beautiful overlook and stare at that unbelievably gorgeous water. We head back to the house or downstairs and put on our bathing suits (for me with a coverup always!) and hang by the pool at our house. We get a little morning sun, everyone is reading their favorite book or magazine. We head in for a light lunch and all go down to the beach. We settle in with our favorite thing to read and stare out at the water. One of our sisters is the little mermaid and we head into the surf and feel totally at peace with everything. Our little mermaid sister is a little skinnydipper. Don't worry we are only there in April or October so there aren't many people on the beach. We are totally respectful. We hang in the water and then walk where the water meets the sand and lay in it for about an hour. Read some more and head back to the house here we all take the best shower in the world, get dressed, play some music, have a glass of wine and head out for dinner. Someone else on here said she couldn't put into words what it was like there for people who have never been there. You can't explain you just have to take them there. I really do think the air is silky. Sorry to go on and on. It is so peaceful there. By the way we are awaiting 20-24 inches of snow starting in the morning!
What would you do if you had 1 day in SoWal?

Fix a little breakfast and then walk on the beach, sit in a beach chair under an umbrella with a good book a while. Lunch at Red Bar then hang at Grayton Beach a while. Enjoy some good champagne watching the sun set. Dinner at Stinky's then walk around Seaside a while then walk the beach in the moonlight. 
what a nice thought after a cold rainy day in Texas

I love the way of life - if you are on vacation and not working
So I would walk, ride my bike, take one auto trip down 30A from one end to another.
Pick a local restaurant that I hadn't been to yet.
Buy something from a local shop.
Have a drink at Bud & Alleys.
And in between sit, in my beach chair at the edge of the water, as often as possible.
All with Mike of course. It would be nice to have family and/or friends there too.
Counting down til June. Ellen
