A national newspaper has a nice article on Rosemary Beach (my part-time home!) that describes the place well.

Boy, in the year and a half since that article was written Rosemary Beach has just continued to boom. The place seems to get bigger every day. The construction never seems to end. But it's definitely a site to see and still alot less crowded than Seaside. The place has some interesting shops and great restaurants. Just yesterday I had lunch at Summer's Kitchen and it was great! There turkey wraps are fantastic! Word from the grapevine has it that the developers of Rosemary are already planning another community in the Seaside and Rosemary Beach tradition only a few miles from Rosemary. Not sure about the name of this still undeveloped community. I'll keep ya posted.
