Hello all; My very first post. been reading the board and posts now for a while. First off, I am grateful to have found your internet community and do look forward to taking part in your forums/communications.

I have been coming to SoWal for 20 plus years; my wife and her family started in the 60's, in Destin... most recently my wife and I are very appreciative of the Grayton-Seaside H20 Color and Rosemary beach area.

To prelude my question/poll; we plan on re-locating to SoWal in a short while. I am a business owner in the Midwest and looking at different options to support our "habit".... and living where we really do want to live.....

Question: What services/business/offerings would you like to see in your area... For example... we never can find a REALLY GOOD pizza Delivery service while on vacation in SoWal... MOST likely because we don't have the "in" or have been properly informed of such....... (:floor: ) THIS IS only an example. However; what do you feel the community is lacking in and what would you like to have whether it be in food service; professional services; entertainment;Better yet; what do you feel that there is an over abundance of... or otherwise????

Thanks!!!!

:lol: Crystal's Lingerie. A place where men can go and watch women model lingerie. Has all kinds of um, different and questionable stuff! Wish someone would buy the one near us and move it, like way away from here.

I was thinking the same thing! NO CHAINS on 30-A, please. We don't want a homogenized beach that is interchangeable with every other beach in the US. We like unique In SoWal.

Ditto Mermaid and GTTBM. The only chain that I want to see on 30-A should be the one worn by 30-gAy. Keep that chain food to the east or west please. I don't go on vacation to eat the same crappy chain food that I can find at home!

;-) Aw come on guys. You were talking about there not being a good sub shop. And Quiznos is not crappy chain food. 30-A is not above having a place like that. You cannot tell me those sandwiches do not look good and they are. Oh well, whatever. No healthy food wanted. :lol:

I actually took a gaggle of hot recent Duke grad. All boys. :wub: My friends who stayed home missed out. I sang my usual "We Belong" and I sang "Friends In Low Places" with my new boyfriend. And a drag queen was trying to take off his shirt!

I'm going to Puerto Rico tomorrow with my 3 main gays! I can't wait! :clap_1:

Quiznos - NO! There is one at Publix in Sandestin. The food is better than Subway, but it is nothing to brag about.

Laundrymat - there is one on Hwy 98 in the Post Office Strip Mall. (just because kathydwells was too drunk to recall me giving her directions to it, doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. :floor:;-) - I love you Kathydwells)

Pizza Delivery - there was a Pizza Hut delivery/ dine in on Hwy 98 and they had to reduce the delivery area and eventually closed because they could not find delivery drivers.
Note to Mango - Amore is not that new. They have been opened for a year. Go try it. It is not NY style pizza, it is more Italian style -- yes, I have had both. (I give Amore pizzas a 9 out of 10 -- 10 being Marco's Pizza in Asheville NC.) Also, note that Amore's toppings are not what we typically think of as being traditional, but they are yummy. -- yes, I have tasted every pizza on the menu.

I think SoWal needs a male strip club for the ladies - like the Full Monty - where all of the working men strip at night. Just look around. I always see these groups of drunk women looking for something to do. They end up settling for dancing to the tunes of DJ Vladi at the 3Thirty1.

That one closed down, it wasn't there last year. :(

OK-I'll bring my camera :biggrin:

Since when have you been going to PR? I had no knowledge of this! I might be going to Tunica this weekend. That's the same, right? :razz:

They might like the rainforest. They do look like some sort of ancient fertility gods. You might find giant ones just like them somewhere!

Done~ ! ! ! ! ! ! Actually I am a true believer in "grass roots" efforts..... With a bit of blood/sweat equity, Meals and booze will be comp-ed" instead of discounting....

That's the Okie way to do things!!!!!!:lolabove:



...so biff.....what about discounts for all of us who were part of this groundbreaking gay bay--with wienies--and drag delivery.

What a brain trust we are....

Biff,
Gotta love that Okie way of doing things. My dad's actually from the Tulsa area (Bartlesville). I have a soft spot for the whole area.
