Where to find stuff you left on the beach?

[scooterbug44]

Why is it so hard to pick up your stuff when you leave the beach?

I have literally lived in the wilderness for weeks at a time with less than many people take to the beach, so my sympathy level about how hard it is to assemble/dissassemble is quite low.

There is no camping on the beach overnight.

Any other questions will be answered at www.pickupyoursheetlazyarse.com

I agree!

Somehow I can't see the police taking seriously a "stolen property" report from someone who left stuff out on the beach overnight...if they do, the SWPD has too much manpower and should do a little downsizing.

The PD just needs to hand these folks a 25-page missing property report to fill out and then just file it in the shredder.

IMO...We've had it up to here <making chopping motion over my head> with you people leaving your garbage strewn all over the beach at night..."Move it, or lose it!"

I'm staying in seagrove this week and I was sad to see that a bunch of stuff left out on the beach overnight was NOT removed. Nor were the holes that were made filled in so my husband and I took care of that.

The phrase "you people" is rude and offensive....please know that not all tourists abuse this beautiful beach! Many of us love and protect it as you do!

If your not one of the "you people" who leave junk and holes on the beach overnight, then it doesn't apply to you....some of the "you people" are actually locals too.

Thanks for filling the holes and taking 'their' tents and junk off the beach--those are the rude and offensive people IMO.

Point taken, Shelly! Sorry about the "rude and offensive" comment....guess I allowed the b------ in me slip out for a moment. I can usually keep her under control!

I don't think the powers are enforcing the "leave no trace" though because I saw obviously old stuff on the beach this morning in a couple of spots in Seagrove.

There are some blue and yellow beach chairs that have been left to the east of the Eastern Lake outfall for over a week. Tried to call the company for a friendly heads up, but no answer. Will make more calls tomorrow. Thought for sure they would be gone and removed from the beach by now.

I am not surprised they are not gone. I have been hearing for two years now that if a canopy is left up it will be taken. I have really big one and left it up all last week, it was not touched. I am beginning to believe the "move it or lose" is just a scare tactic. Someone just stole that bike.

Last summer you came to this forum to voice your opinion against keeping our beaches safe and clean for people and turtles - http://www.sowal.com/bb/nature-environment/25003-canopy-beach-3.html

It's OK for you to disagree with the majority, but continue it on the old thread or start a new one. No need to come on today and post on 5 different threads to stir up trouble, bragging about leaving up your canopy and breaking the law on our beaches. That is troll behavior and is not allowed.

If everyone who visited our beaches thought as you and did exactly what they wanted without care for other people or the environment, then our beaches would be unusable.

If you are proud of your actions and really want to test the law, call the Sheriff's office before your next visit, let them know where you are staying, and you will be sure to get your chance to test "remove it or lose it". Or at least have the courage to come on this forum the week before your visit instead of the week after.

If you can't follow the rules and wishes of the majority of people who live here, then it's probably best for you to find another beach community somewhere else that is eager to have you visit and leave up your canopy.

Fry_Day claims to be an attorney...that pretty much explains it.

There's an old joke that goes: What's the difference between a lawyer and a vulture?.......removable wingtips.

I guess we can now add--one cleans up the mess left behind.

Now if we could just get the TDC to use the $$ from the sale of these items instead of raising the bed tax again!!!

How can Beach Chair Rentals leave their Stuff on the beach but anyone else's is takin to the dump? My guess is those companies are related to a County Official!

No county official relation here. Our beach chair rentals move them under our walkover at the toe of the dune every evening. Adagio has a closed storage area, I believe. They are not left out in the open area of the beach for people to stumble over.
