  1. About coastal landscaping on the Alabama coast–it is illegal to disturb the sea oats. The people in the island homes are not progressive or lazy. As the article stated, the whole island would wash away if the vegetation were replaced with landscaping.

    When we vacationed on Santa Rosa Island, off the panhandle of FL, there was a boardwalk across the sea oats. We could not walk through the sea oats. There were signs warning people to stay out of the sea oats and to not dig it up or trample it.

    If you go to Florida, always stay on an island. It is so much less commercial, thus a better beach experience.

  2. That breadbox into mailbox hack is brilliant! It would be such and excellent replacement for our current horrible mailbox, but I am very sad to see that the Ikea breadbox is only available in Great Britain, and not here in the US. I shall remember the idea though, in case a different suitable breadbox shows up at Goodwill or something…
