I had the symptoms while at the beach in Blue Mtn Beach.JB said:Dang, this is really disturbing news. Not only from the standpoint of not being able to get on the beach/in the water, but I would be afraid to eat seafood as well.
Have there been any reports of red tide anywhere other than Seagrove? Sandestin? Destin?
Naw, don't worry about eating seafood. I trust that any reputable restaurant is getting its seafood from a non-red-tide area. We were at the beach this past weekend, ate seafood multiple times, and are okaaaaaaaay ..... gasp ..... I can't breathe ..... OMG my tummy hurts ..... helppppp .....JB said:Dang, this is really disturbing news.

JK.
But I did notice a scratchy feeling in my throat whenever I went to the walkover. We decided to keep ourselves and the dog off the beach and just chill out at the pool.

there's always some red tide algae present just about everywhere - its the concentration that matters
been proven that iron in the water causes boom in count - a'la bloom
if you got a hot flash after eating those shrimp - it's the red tide algae in their system - so eat one then wait five minutes and if there is no reaction then scarf the rest down -![]()
if you eat a thousand shrimp you will have pink wee and maybe even die from the iodine unless you are really, really fat! :shock:
shrimp eat s***![]()
too much fun but breaks over - back to work!![]()

Maybe then I could afford to get the Bayliner upholstery redone from what Hurr Charley did to it. Have you guys seen the prices they charge? Wow!
