Want to try to get a good deal on some prime Panama City Beach real estate Friday may be your day.
According to the Panama City News Herald:
One of the largest land holdings in Panama City Beach history goes on the auction block later this week as the estate of the late Charles Faircloth offers nearly a quarter-billion dollars worth of prime gulf beachfront land to the highest bidders.
Faircloth, who died Oct. 6, spent decades buying and selling Beach property and left behind a massive inventory of undeveloped land and finished condos and homes along the 22-mile beachfront.
“This will be the largest auction in the history of the area,” said project manager Thania Krafthefer of Roebuck Auctions Inc., a nationwide firm headquartered in Memphis, Tenn., with a regional office in Destin. “There is extraordinary, phenomenal interest in this property.”
The auction firm has announced more than 150 separate Faircloth properties in Bay County will be offered for sale Friday March 14, 2008. The auction is scheduled to take place at the Bay Point Marriott Gulf Resort beginning at noon.
Krafthefer said her firm was told several months ago the holdings have a combined market value in the neighborhood of $250 million, although the resort condo market has experienced falling prices and appraised values in recent years.
Good luck!

Panama City Beach - Pier Repair
City and Bay County government and business leaders celebrated Thursday the formal groundbreaking for a new Dan Russell Pier that will replace the hurricane-damaged structure with an entirely new pier by summer 2009.

Panama City Beach
Jimmy Buffett hasn’t arrived yet, but spring breakers, families and other parrotheads attended the opening of Buffett’s Margaritaville in Pier Park on Wednesday. Take a look at a picture of Buffett’s Margaritaville in Pier Park in the update section of my web site.
If you go have one for me!

Panama City Beach - Kilwins
We spent the weekend in Panama City Beach getting the condos ready for beach season. We spent some time in Pier Park looking through some of the new stores. I wrote about the opening of Kilwins Chocolates and Ice Cream before Valentines Day. I can say first hand that if you like chocolate you will love Kilwins. They take chocolate to a new level. We tried the chocolate covered strawberries which were excellent! Chocolate covered Oreos, Twinkies, rice crispy teats and lots of types of fudge and ice cream abound.
Check out Kilwins if you get a chance.

Global Warming Fact Or Myth?
Article Taken from;http://www.dailytech.com/Temperature...ticle10866.htm
Over the past year, anecdotal evidence for a cooling planet has exploded. China has its coldest winter in 100 years. Baghdad sees its first snow in all recorded history. North America has the most snowcover in 50 years, with places like Wisconsin the highest since record-keeping began. Record levels of Antarctic sea ice, record cold in Minnesota, Texas, Florida, Mexico, Australia, Iran, Greece, South Africa, Greenland, Argentina, Chile -- the list goes on and on.
No more than anecdotal evidence, to be sure. But now, that evidence has been supplanted by hard scientific fact. All four major global temperature tracking outlets (Hadley, NASA's GISS, UAH, RSS) have released updated data. All show that over the past year, global temperatures have dropped precipitously.
A compiled list of all the sources can be seen here. The total amount of cooling ranges from 0.65C up to 0.75C -- a value large enough to wipe out nearly all the warming recorded over the past 100 years. All in one year's time. For all four sources, it's the single fastest temperature change ever recorded, either up or down.
Scientists quoted in a past DailyTech article link the cooling to reduced solar activity which they claim is a much larger driver of climate change than man-made greenhouse gases. The dramatic cooling seen in just 12 months time seems to bear that out. While the data doesn't itself disprove that carbon dioxide is acting to warm the planet, it does demonstrate clearly that more powerful factors are now cooling it.
Let's hope those factors stop fast. Cold is more damaging than heat. The mean temperature of the planet is about 54 degrees. Humans -- and most of the crops and animals we depend on -- prefer a temperature closer to 70.
Historically, the warm periods such as the Medieval Climate Optimum were beneficial for civilization. Corresponding cooling events such as the Little Ice Age, though, were uniformly bad news.
While I think this provides mild evidence, I await what to see what happens over the course of the next few years to make any sort of conclusive decision.
Thanks
