Got the new Cypress beach chairs stained and delivered. Also, I’m going to give these shower shampoo/conditioner/body wash dispensers a try. Same type used in hotels…hopefully they will hold up to the beach life. Enjoy! 🌴🌴🌴🌴🦈🍹🍹🍹

Recently, one of my yearly returning guest told me that they bring a beach cart with them to help get stuff on & off the beach….I figured I could help with that.
I did unfortunately hate every beach cart I looked at, …..so I modified a large, heavy duty, plastic cart with some “no flat” extra large beach tires and a stainless axle. Should make transporting all your beach gear a lot more easier. Enjoy! -Pete 🌴🌴🌴🌴🐬🍹

Do you ever visit The Sloop….go outback, listen to music, and relax in those very comfy, hand-made, Cypress chairs? Well, a friend of mine, and old school Fort Morgan local, Big Paul Brunson makes those chairs. Last year him and I met up at The Sloop, and I sit in each and every one of those chairs…trying to decide which design I liked best. I couldn’t decide, so he took what I liked from each chair and made these for me. They turned out perfect!
So, after I get them stained, I’ll be dropping them off at Mainstay Cottage for you to enjoy.
Mr. Brunson also just made the new Cypress benches at Bahama Bobs. If you like nice chairs/benches check him out, and tell him Uncle Pete sent you. Enjoy! 🌴🌴🌴🌴🐬🍹🍹

I’ve done away with the notorious electric grill….and put a new propane grill on the parking deck level. Like most things it will come with Pros & Cons. Enjoy! 🌴🌴🌴🌴🐬🍹

One question I get asked a lot… “How do you know if it’s Hank, Fred, or the elusive George?”. Simple…just call them by one of their names, and if they respond, you know you’re talking to the correct one. This is “Hank”. 🌴🌴🌴🌴

From a 55inch to a 75inch. Even after all my eye surgeries…I can see this tv screen. Also, streaming shows/videos isn’t an issue after connecting it to the new StarLink internet service. Enjoy! 🌴🌴🌴🌴🍹🐬

The complete upper deck rebuild has been completed! Thank you Fort Morgen Services for getting the job done. The new TimberTech decking is suppose to keep it 20 degrees cooler than other composite decking….fingers crossed on that. Also, we’ve upgraded to StarLink internet, so hopefully this will increase data speeds and have fewer outages…that was common with BrightSpeed & MediaCom. Enjoy! 🌴🌴🌴🌴🍹🦈
