Trip Report

[Oldtimer]

So very glad you had a good visit, BC. Sounds like you got a good taste of just about everything. And, as for the illness you suffered..."A bad day in SoWal is better than most good days other places."

You MUST try the Red Bar and the beach at Grayton. You probably did see Steele Mama's house, but next time you'll have to stop by and meet the clan.

Hope you are already planning your return trip.

My son and daughter-in-law arrived in Seagrove yesterday evening and when I spoke with them a short while ago, they said the beach (near One Seagrove) is absolutely beautiful! They didn't see any of the green slimy stuff in the water, and not much of the brown grass on the beach..I guess it must come and go? The weather today is perfect! I can't wait to get back down there!

Yes, it was clearing up beautifully Thursday!

I loved your trip report too, and didn't realize you had'nt been to the beach before. Is this your 1st trip to a beach or have you been to others before?

My husband is from the Chicago area but the 1st time I took him to Pensacola Beach 25 yrs. ago, he thought he'd died and gone to heaven. He says there are no beaches anywhere more beautiful than the panhandle. So happy you went and loved it too!

No, I've been to Padre Island - Navarre Beach - Biloxi - Gulf Shores and now SoWal Now I know---there is no other beach besides a SoWal beach.....

Thanks everybody for not complaining about the length of my novel, I just had so much to tell


I think Oldtimer said it best:

..."A bad day in SoWal is better than most good days other places."

Boy did we get doggie kisses all over. We even got a doggie bath before she would finally lay down between us. With her paw holding down my arm I might add, so I couldn't go anywhere.

awww

Thanks for the report & pics Beach Crazy!

On the contrary, Beach Crazy, I think we're all crazy about your report! It brings the beach closer to us when we read about it at home. And thanks for the warning about beefing up the sunscreen. I got burnt during spring break and it was not funn. You'd think we'd all be savvy enough not to let ourselves get fried, huh? :roll:

Beach Crazy, nice pics. Nice review! I'm jealous! And boy, you did get burned. Ouch! I think that is so cute your dog putting it's paw on your arm. Our dog paws us all the time! I almost dread leaving our dog this year. Last year was the first year we boarded him without his momma with him. She passed away January 2005 during surgery for cancer. Still have tears well up when thinking about her. She was almost 13. He howled in the basement for 3 nights after we got back and picked him up at the vet. And now he is 12, has some kidney failure that is being monitored by the vet, but is fine otherwise. He is on a kidney diet dog food and senior food and I just dread a repeat of last year. Almost tempted to cancel our trip out of dread of leaving him. Feel guilty already. We so look forward to our trip to the beach. What should we do?
