crystal beach florida: Sea Turtle Over Crystal Beach Florida - He Is Always Watching! - 06/13/12 09:36 PM
I thought that might get your attention! This sea turtle over Crystal Beach Florida has spent the last couple of years up on this balcony, watching people walking by below. From time to time, he changes his position and sometimes goes to the balcony a floor lower, but he is always looking out to sea, wondering why he isn't there.

I love taking my morning walks and passing by this house with the sea turtle on the top balcony. The kids, naturally, think this is a cool addition!

Crystal Beach Florida is a wonderful little town to live in! … (20 comments)

crystal beach florida: Stingrays Feeding Off The Shore In Crystal Beach Florida - 06/11/12 09:55 PM
Stingrays feeding off the shore in Crystal Beach Florida - yes, this is the type of thing we get to see at low tide here in our tropical paradise!

While out for my morning walk, I was able to snap a few great photos of stingrays feeding in the shallow waters off shore.

From these photos, you can see how clear our waters are here in the Gulf of Mexico! When you can get shots like these of stingrays in the water while you are up on a pier, that certainly indicates clear water!

The Sweet Spot In Crystal Beach Florida - Ice Cream & So Much More!
The Sweet Spot is our local Crystal Beach Florida ice cream shop. Located on the corner of Alternate 19 and Crystal Beach Avenue, it is one of those places that is ‘technically’ located in Crystal Beach but has a Palm Harbor mailing address!
Kim Verheyleweghen purchased the shop from the previous owner in March of 2011 and the place has seen an amazing transformation!
Besides offering Working Cow Ice Cream (made here in Pinellas County), the Sweet Spot also offers many homemade items: fudge, wedding cakes, carrot … (8 comments)

Here in Crystal Beach Florida we have a little post office on Crystal Beach Avenue where the locals spend time chatting with each other. It is here that you will find our Postmistress, Pam Hurlburt.

Crystal Beach Florida - A Little Postal History
Crystal Beach Florida, that lovely community that runs along the shores of the Gulf of Mexico, has a rather unique history. Palm Harbor, our big sister next door, has attempted to incorporate little Crystal Beach into their town, as they have done with little Ozona to our south. The citizens of Crystal Beach constantly vote against being incorporated into Palm Harbor, since we want to remain an independent community.
As far as the post office is concerned, it is all very confusing. Since we do not have mailboxes in Crystal Beach, … (6 comments)

crystal beach florida: So How Much For The Furniture? Do We Negotiate That In The Contract? - 05/23/12 12:36 AM
So how much for the furniture? Do we negotiate that in the contract?
It isn't often that I am asked about the furniture here in the Crystal Beach/Palm Harbor Florida real estate market but it does come up from time to time and the rule of thumb in our area is that the furniture has ZERO value as far as the contract is concerned. If the buyer and seller want to negotiate on their own about any specific pieces of furniture, that is up to them but as far as the contracts that we Realtors use here in Florida, property has … (14 comments)

crystal beach florida: Negotiating The Deal - What Realtors Do! - 05/20/12 09:49 PM
Negotiating the deal - that is what Realtors do  
It is also one of the reasons you hired a Realtor!
You have finally found THE house that you want and your Realtor is writing the offer.....or is he/she? What I prefer to do (unless it is a bank owned property or a short sale) is CALL the listing agent and negotiate the deal BEFORE it goes to paper.
WHY would I do that? Simply because with every change that is made to the original contract, everyone involved has to initial each change. Often the contract is such a mess by … (3 comments)

crystal beach florida: Crystal Beach Florida - A Little History - 05/15/12 01:14 AM
Crystal Beach Florida is an adorable place to live and play along the coastline of the Gulf of Mexico. Little Crystal Beach was founded in 1912 by Mr. Avery and Mr. Rebstock of Crystal Beach in Ontario, Canada. That is how our little town got it's name.

Dr J.D. Hanby  and Mr. A.D. Powers took over the development of our little town and laid out streets. Thus the Crystal Beach Development Company was formed.
There wasn't much going on in this little seaside village when our beautiful Live Oak Park was named. The park used to have a fountain and … (5 comments)

crystal beach florida: Crystal Beach Florida - Another Beautiful Day - 04/24/12 08:48 AM
Crystal Beach Florida - another beautiful day indeed! It is that time of year, everything in bloom!

This is one of my favorite times of year since our mornings are still cool. It is perfect weather for early morning walks through Crystal Beach and naturally, my camera is always with me so I can photograph the beauty of Mother Nature.

Since I have my iPhone 4s, it takes most of my morning walk photos and that was the case here as well.
