Lots of Local happenings this week

The 20th at the sugar shack is the third annual toobed meat eating contest. Winner gets free dogs for the summer

Grady plays the Legion next Saturday get your tickets early are sure to sell out!

See ya soon

Remember Big Ass Rock Walls Belong in China Not Cox Bay Support those that care about the Beach not those that destroy it. Somehow they feels the rules just don’t apply. Just fess up and fix this problem before it gets silly and legal.

Kind of like scrapping in the surf…the case went away so lets ALL play nice out there. 

 

Word of the Day is “RESPECT”

  • Each Other
  • The Beach
  • The Ocean
  • People
  • Nature 
  • “The Pickle” (this was getting way too serious)

Don’t expect to get any if you never give any…pickles that is:

Shout out to Cole in the Royal City

Quote of the Day

Being willing to change allows you to move from a point of view to a viewing point — a higher, more expansive place, from which you can see both sides.

The Romans built some nice walls and look where it got them? If you can learn from your mistakes…are they really mistakes?  Another rant and refection from the janitor at Long Beach Surf Shop.
