Even then the houses were close to the water, I'm a little surprised. Great pics.

They really were.

I was not going to post this yet but found it in my email...i have more I need to scan and will post later.

This is Grayton Beach on one of my college breaks circa 1984....notice there are hardly any homes behind us. BTW...this was in November! yes, we had been in the water!

And what was there, was very modest. This was back in the day when beach houses were BEACH houses. 1984 back in the day

Yes they were....we used to rent "The Retreat" it was two bedrooms, one bath, no tv, no phone....very rustic! we loved it...it is gone now.
I have a few more that show how huge the dunes were...this was before Opal...they are all gone now. I will try to get those scanned and posted ASAP.

Great photos. 1984? I was as junior at UA then. Doesn't seem that long ago.

BTW, is that Tony Orlando in the middle?
