It's almost that time again ... hard to believe that another year has gone by and it will be the 4th of July 2007 in a week.
Go early ... get a good place to park .... stay all day!! That's what most people do.... Flagler Beach is the greatest beach town .... when you get off of I-95 at the Flagler Beach exit, you are the closest to the beach from Maine to Miami. And when you get to the top of the bridge that crosses the intercoastal waterway .. you can see for miles and miles and miles (sounds like a song ... hmmmmmm)
The fireworks display is from the end of the pier and lights up the night sky all along the ocean .... Santore and Sons our local firework company puts on a wonderful display ... not too long ago, on my way out to the county, they were testing their fireworks at dark, and what a treat to see the sky lighting up in the darkness of western Bunnell in mid-May.
Anyway... if you haven't been to Flagler Beach before you really owe it to yourself to visit. I call it Mayberry .. its just a small beach town that hasn't lost it's small town atmosphere. No high rises, condos, and massive building here... the beach is basically undisturbed for about 12 miles or so. When you ride up (or down) A1A the view of the Atlantic Ocean is really something to see ... somedays the color of the blue-green water is breathtaking.
I love this little town, and calling it Mayberry Beach is really a compliment ... the laid-back lifestyle, friendly people, surfers, places to eat, and place to just kick your feet up, lean back and enjoy life as it should be is PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!
Want to live here ... or near here ...... go to www.DiscoverPalmCoastFlorida.com and let me help you find that place you would want to call home ...... and just a short drive to my favorite beach!!!
Oh yes... I almost forgot ... it is the best place to watch the shuttle launches too!!
