Finally, a place that offers steamed seafood, my favorite!!

The oaks are great! What a difference! I am so glad they didn't plant a bunch of palm trees!

I totally agree, was such a pleasant surprise watching them put them in yesterday! I was dreading the circle of palms...

Take a picture, it lasts longer.

Oak trees!Thank goodness. I can't wait to see them. I am not a big palm tree fan either. If you can believe it some developer put palm trees here in Northern Alabama in a new development. Not sure what he was thinking. Oaks would have looked great!

What was there before? I remember after one of the hurricanes of 2005, the salt water had made all of the leaves brown on the trees around the amphitheatre -- it looked like fall. I'm pretty sure they were hardwoods. But maybe not native?

They were sycamores or maples, can't remember exactly, but the new addition is beautiful.

P.S. The new trees are native.

They were sycamores. I believe some are still in the Motor Court.

Thanks for the info.

Yes they are.

It kills me that they will plant Oaks in SS, and palm trees in places like Defuniak and Crestview. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE oaks...I just think the irony is funny.
