is cornman in the dunes ?
- Thread starter vote

At least he knows where the beach is, which is more than some of the candidates in several races can say.
Now we will need to educate him on the proper way to enjoy the world's most beautiful beaches.
Since he probably will have the next four years free, we have time on our side.:funn::funn::funn:beach_umbrella

That type of family picture "in the dunes", as all y'all put it, is hanging in every house in every State between the Gulf coast and the Mason-Dixon line.
Don't you folks think you're being a little hyper-critical ? Maybe you should take the family, the dog, and the camera and go to the beach occasionally...[Enjoy the photo!]

You can't be too critical when protecting dunes. Years ago it wasn't a problem. Now we have thousands of folks climbing all over the dunes every year. Locals should know better and set a good example for visitors. And if you are correct and there are many pictures of people in the dunes, that doesn't make it right.
Our beautiful dunes are extremely fragile, and are often the only thing between our houses and the merciless gulf. They are the only protection against storms.
A local realtor, photographer, candidate for office, or anyone else who would publish photos of people in the dunes won't get my business, or vote.
Not a good example
Just because "everybody does it" doesn't make it okay. I understand that there is an ordinance against, and fine for, being in the dunes. I have to tell customers "no" when they want to climb on in and pose with the seaoats. Part of the reason they don't know better are the aforementioned "pictures in every house". In Tony's defence, I think he and wife are superimposed on the background. However, this could mean that he does NOT actually know where the beach is. Photoshop is a double edge sword.

In reflection, you are probably right.
Besides, there are alot bigger issues in the Sheriff's Race than one of the candidates being photgraphed in front of a blue screen or however such photos are produced.

not every house.
reality check please
I have been a resident of walton county for only about 27 years. Iv visited numerous times before that and walked these lovely beaches many times. I seem to remember many many dunes that are now the livingrooms and bedrooms of rental townhomes.
It seems that dunes are only protected until a building permit is granted. Then its just a pile of sand. How sad.
Let the first person who never walked on a dune cast the next stone.
