Still doesn't suck. MJ and I are hosting newbies so a bit of a tour this week. Actually fun making sure we keep going to new places each day. Attached Images I prefer the Isle seat

I know next door at Mary’s Boon they quickly rake up and bury it. But it’d not that common to have sea grass in Simpson Bay.

I was told by the regulars at the Driftwood that almost never happens. Oops. Just saw Whale Tail has already reported it. Never mind. Last edited by MotownTim; 03/09/2023 04:04 AM.
