While eating at the Old Florida...I heard some people saying that Shades in Seaside lost their lease and will close December 31st with a huge free food and booze party...anybody elso know about this? Also, I heard that Bud and Alleys will loose their lease next year...what the H___ is the controlling person of Seaside thinking...Fermentations replaced by a flower shop? Must be someone who doesn't get it...

Awesome BR....I want you on my side!!!! I'd be in elastic waist sweatpants myself. Maybe a shirt that says....HELL NO WE WON'T GO I'D LIKE A PLANTER'S PUNCH PLEASE!!!!
Maybe we could get our "friends" we met that night that wanted to dance with us to come with us. We could chain ourselves to her!

May I have another Miller Lite please?

That would sure make for a nice comfy pillow for me, but watch out if you get chained to the gigilo (?) it might get HARD!

BR,No prob.
That sounds like a great plan to me. I like the GT sweatshirt, I may wear my tacky ol' comfy Levis though. That OK?
Gosh, we should all wear our Bud & Alley's T-shirts!

Ok, Ok don't drag out the chains just yet girls although I have to agree with SMJoe chained girls on the deck sounds interesting. There really is no limit to what I have seen up there after all these years.
Anyway, straight from the horses mouth. I am not loosing my lease at Bud & Alley's. In May I signed a lease for 2006. Robert Davis spoke with me and said they are going to develop the south side of the road later than the north side of the road. They just presented me with another lease renewal to go to the end of 2007 and I firmly expect with the length of time it will take to build the new downtown I could be in the present building through 2008 or more.
The future plan for us provides for a new building on the beach for Bud & Alley's roofdeck with a location across the street for the main restaurant. They would build me the new building first on the beach and we would move into it so there would be no missed sunsets.
I am very optimistic about Seaside's intentions for my future with Bud & Alley's. Currently they have been reluctant to give me multiple year leases because they want to be flexible with their timetable for the downtown build out. So keep your chains in the garage for now. Please pass the word, I can't seem to stop this rumor no matter how many people I talk to. Thanks to all of you for your support and good words about B&A's.

Oh Dave...I thank you and more importantly, Miss Kitty thanks you! That sounds workable to us. As long as y'all are happy with the arrangement, those of us that LOVE being on TOP of B & A's will not chain ourselves to the bar unless asked to!!!! Does sound kinda' FUNN though!!!

What are you talking about!!!!!!! :shock:
Our "friends" at the bar...gttbm and I had the "pleasure" of meeting up with a very drunk woman (large chest...nice pillow) and her male friend (kept man...might get HARD) one night at the Tarpon Club. gttbm tried very hard not to make eye contact, but I will talk to anyone!!! The male friend took a liking to gttbm!!!
As Mr. Dave says...he's seen everything up there! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Whew!!!!! Thanks for the good news!!!! One more thing to be thankful for.:clap_1:Yes, David, I adore Bud & Alley's. It's quintessential Seaside! BUD & ALLEY'S FOREVER!!!!!

good - one less thing to be worried about - did you know there is nobody overseeing components used in seawall/retaining wall structure? - you could put radioactive feces in the fill, and once it's covered (with the proper colored sand) its in there regardless - talking to walton county government is like talking to someone in another country - who speaks a different language that you've never even heard of or could find a book on - amazing!
i still say we should have a sit in to demonstrate our support of B&A's - 2.25 cent drink special that ends as soon as anybody gets up!

I know some people that would still need to dragged out...because ..."I've been chained and overserved and I can't get up"!

Thank god. I don't think being my personal assistant is Mo's first choice when it comes to a new job.
We'll be there new years. Don't worry...I'm sure our crew will pay the mortgage on the building again. For the 7th year running. :clap_1:

well, this is all good news after all! Like many of you, Bud and Alleys is an integral part of our trip to Sowal. (In fact, my teenager and college son refuse to go anywhere else the Friday before we leave--its a tradition to sit out on the gazebo and eat crab claws, among many other treats.)
I'm quite willing to join any group chaining itself to the bar to keep it from going down....pass me a glass of their really good chardonay.
