You're So SoWal If ...

[Teresa]

You have a rotation schedule for having your birthday dinner at Nick's on the Bay and Nick's at the Beach.

You know you've become a local when you go into hibernation after July 4th and come out just in time for the very best months of the year - October and November!!!

You have loads of practice enjoying the beach just as much and more in the winter time as in the summer.

You know what a GOB Party is and never miss it!

You remember when The Red Bar was a store and when driving on the beach from Grayton to Seagrove was allowed.

You cried when the dogs were banned from the beach in one of the biggest County Commission Meetings ever.

You dream of the day when you call SoWal home.

You know which SoWallers to call when you ANY info about the area.

You have one too many of Mo's cosmos and end up with a SoWal tattoo.

You've have your own chair on the F Balcony and your own room at the Kitty Kondo.

You've been the lucky recipient of some darn fine Christmas ornaments.

You've tasted Allifunn's cornbread salad.



I'll come up with more later.

 

[Teresa]

You remember and long for Coco's Mexican Grill and their giant margaritas with a huge table full of friends!!!

You have attended Soirees on the beach with people from here to New York, Arizona, Georgia, Alabama, Texas and all over. You call them all these bizarre SoWal names (Destindreaming, Gotothebeachmom, jdarg, river otter...) and may eventually remember their real names but never use them.

You know when The Otter flies.

You're So SoWally if you know the real reason music is banned in Seaside.

... if you're auto has a permanent coat of orange clay dust.
