"Life Shines (The 30A Song)" by Bryan Kennedy

In between all the shots of bikini-clad beach beauties ;-), this video is a Valentine to the beaches and beach communities of 30A. The neighborhood shown at the very beginning of the video is Seacrest Beach, where our house is located. Also included are Inlet, Rosemary and Alys Beaches, Grayton Beach, Seaside, Seagrove, and Santa Rosa Beach. Life really does shine on 30A.

Seacrest Beach Welcomes Seagrill!

Seagrill, an exciting new restaurant, has opened in the Seacrest Beach neighborhood in the location facing 30A that was previously occupied by Chops. Seagrill offers fresh seafood, steaks and sushi in a chic and comfortable atmosphere. Check out their photo gallery and menus at the website: http://www.seagrill30a.com/ or, "friend" them on their facebook page and receive advance notification of special events and discounts. When visiting our home in Seacrest Beach, please be sure to take time out for a fabulous meal or drinks and sushi at Seagrill.

"Florida" (by Patty Griffin)

I absolutely adore this artist and this song. I chose this YouTube video because, despite what the song says about driving down A1A on the East coast of Florida, the pictures are taken along 30A, on the Gulf Coast, and features the communities of 30A. Enjoy!
