Hello there...

It’s the season for summer to kick-off — the season we’ve all been waiting for.

Annual events like The Gulf Coast Hot Air Balloon Festival in Foley and Shindig in the Sand at Flora-Bama make June an exciting time here on the Coast.

June draws in thousands of beach go-ers who plan their vacations around the summer season to get in a little family time, relaxation and of course, a tan.

The condos are at full capacity, the nightlife is at its peak and the beaches are busier than ever.

I’ll see you there in my beach chair!

Flora-Bama gears up For second annual

shindig in the sand by destiny brown

three days of music, sun and fun don't come close to summing up the Flora-Bama's Second

Annual Shindig on the Sand Beach Concert at the Flora-Bama.

More than 50 musical acts and 200 musicians will set up on the

Flora-Bama stages for a weekend sure to get the summer started off right.

Sponsored by the Perdido Key Chamber, the event will celebrate the Flora-Bama's 50th Anniversary.

Last of the “Great Ameri-can Roadhouses,” the Flora-Bama partners with Ameri-can Family Care each year

to provide the Gulf musicians access to affordable healthcare and other social ser-vices. The effort is called Flora-Bama's Gulf Coast Musicians' Assistance Fund (GCMAF).

“Last year, they put together an effort to raise money for Gulf Coast musicians who don't have health care,” Jenifer Surface-Ivey, marketing director of the Flora-Bama, said. “We partnered with American Fam-ily Care, which is an urgent care hospital/walk-in clinic. There are plenty of them around the Gulf Coast and they have do-nated $100,000 over the last 20 years to our Gulf Coast musicians.”

The Flora-Bama does its part in raising money for the cause.

“Each year, we set aside $5,000 of Flora-Bama's own money to go toward Gulf Coast musicians,” Surface-Ivey said. “We hope every Gulf Coast musician, if they need a

Find Your

Flair at Summer Art Camp

Submitted by Coastal Arts Center of orange beach

Whether children are ready to cool off with underwa-

ter basket weaving, dig elbows deep into clay sculpting, play with poet-ry or paint a masterpiece, there’s something for ev-eryone at the Coastal Arts Center of Orange Beach’s Summer Art Camp.

“Find Your Flair,” the camp’s theme, is meant as an opportunity for bud-ding artists to test out a broad range of art medi-ums and fall in love with one or more kinds of cre-ative expression.

The camp will pro-vide expert instruction in a summer fun atmo-sphere. Students will at-tend classes in visual arts, poetry, pottery, drama, art in nature and recycled art each day, along with bi-weekly dance classes and glass-blowing demonstra-tions.

Participants will take home many masterpieces and even display their work in the Coastal Arts

underwater basket weaving, pottery, poetry, painting, drama and more.


Center of Orange Beach gal-lery. Family members and friends may support young artists during a reception, while items will be on pub-lic display during the month of June.

“We hope each child will find a lifelong passion dur-ing Summer Art Camp,” Jessica Jones, children’s programs coordinator, said. “We want to nurture love and appreciation for the arts during these workshops, along with pride of owner-ship through the gallery dis-

play.”Participation is open to

rising-first through rising-seventh graders.

“For younger children, we want to offer a fun atmo-sphere where learning and the creative process feels different from the class-room — so that art becomes associated with freedom of expression,” she explained. “For older children, we want to encourage individu-alism and critical thinking, to foster artisans and en-trepreneurs.”

WhAt: Summer Art CampWhEN: June 9 – 13; 8:30 a.m. – 3 p.m. WhErE: Coastal Arts Center of Orange Beach CoSt: $165 for the first student and $145 per sibling (partial scholarships available; contact Jessica Jones at 251-981-4119). Each camper will receive a Summer Art Camp T-shirt, a daily snack

and drinks. Students should bring a sack lunch each day.

A D V E R T I S E M E N T

It was a beautiful summer morning when we leftFairhope, low humidity and not a cloud in the sky. Wewere on ourway down toOrange Beachto check outa businessthat many ofour friendshave told usabout, thisEnglishmanwho hadopened a Hair Salon on the beach with his daughterEmma. My hair is very important to me and getting agood haircut is a must, and that is what Anthony Jones isknown for and excellent hair color to boot.

We have both been very dissatisfied with the last fewattempts on designing our hair to suit our lifestyles; mostof the so called stylists did not take into considerationour age or understand that we both want to look greatwithout a lot of fuss and bother.

The traffic was a bit heavy due to the summer visitors,but we arrived on time to this charming yellow and whitebeach house on the beach road with a fabulous view ofthe Gulf of Mexico. We were greeted warmly by Anthonyand Emma and they ask us if we would like a cold drinkor a glass of wine before he started making us beautiful.

Pam, my friend, went first since I was a little chickenafter the last experiences. Anthony directed her to astyling chair andwent on toexplain the tenmost importantrules in designinga customhairstyle to suither. He firstlooked at her faceshape andexplained thatthere are fiveface shapes outthere and toldher her face shape was oval. The next was bonestructure and head shape, after that was the type of herhair, the texture of her hair, then what sort of conditionher hair was in, followed by the way the hair grows outof the head, plus cow licks, then her likes and dislikesand fashion. Wow! What a lot of things to get right.

So then Emma started with a relaxing shampoo anddeep conditioning, then for the next 30 minutesAnthony’s hands were a sea of motion, lastly a quickblow dry with hardly any fuss and presto she wasfinished! She was so happy and she could not believe thedifference in her hair.

Now it was my turn, my hair especially in the summer

gets very frizzy and dry; I have tried everything out therefor my hair with no success! Anthony explained thatcommercial hair products are made different toprofessional hair products. Commercial shampoos aremade of mild detergent and the conditioners are basedon petroleum oil. Where professional hair products arepure and natural and give back to the hair, he also wenton to say that we should all wash our hair every day andcondition our hair the same.

Anthony explained that at all times our hair has tohave at least 8% moisture in it the same as our skin, weshould treat our hair the same way as we treat our skin,by moisturizing it every day which made a lot of sense tome, since the last stylist told me not to wash my hairevery day because in her mind it would dry it out.Anthony explained to me that yes using some drug storeproducts would dry your hair out if washed daily. Afterwe went through the ten rules, he took me to theshampoo area and treated me to the best shampoo andconditioning my hair had ever had.

While shampooing, Emma explained to me what Ishould do in the morning in the shower, again stressingno over-the-counter hair products, that’s why my hair isdry and frizzy. After shampooing and beforeconditioning, towel blot the hair because the hair isporous like a sponge, putting any conditioner on one’shair when it is full of water will not go into the hair itself,so blot it first then apply the product and leave it in whileyou are washing yourself. Then before you leave theshower, rinse and count up to 10 slowly and stop, just

rinse the excess andno more.

After sheexplained to me thehows & whys, Iunderstood. Theyare like hair doctors,if we listen and dowhat they says itworks! Anthony hashis own line ofproducts andeverything he usedon me was his and

believe me the stuff works. The cut he gave me waswonderful; I walked out a new woman and so did Pam,no more frizzes! Oh, by the way he used a great productbefore he dried my hair called “POTION.” It is a gel with alot of healing features with body, fabulous! I bought abottle. Best money we ever spent and yes, we aredefinitely going back. He is a true professional.

Well worth a visit!Anthony’s Salon is on the beach road inOrange Beach; their phone number is

Anthony Jones ... Well Worth A Visit!Voted The Best Salon in Baldwin County in 2014


It’s hard to imagine that it’s June already. I was afraid the cool air and hard rain would last all summer. Now that the weather is in a normal pattern, the fishing should also change to the normal patterns. This month, if you work at it, you should be able to limit on specks, red fish and a lot of times, flounder.

Specks Specks are going to feed when the tides move the

water and move the bait. It’s often better speck fishing when the tides are during the neap patterns. This also makes it easier to anchor your boat near the inshore gas rigs, inshore reefs and sand bars/oyster bars/drop offs located all over Mobile Bay.

I almost always use live shrimp on kahle hooks under slip corks.

Cast up-current with your depth set around two feet off the bottom, and let the cork drift very close to the structure.

If you don’t get a bite, reel in and cast again with only a slight change in the spot you cast to. When you get a bite, set your hook, but remember the spot you cast to. Try to make as little noise as pos-sible, and never drop or slam the hatch covers on your boat. Trout spook easily.

FlounderIf you have some bull minnows

on board, you can fish the bottom on the down-current side of the structure for flounder. Flounder lay on the bottom and ambush their lunch. If you’ve hooked a flounder, be sure to use your net when he gets to the boat, and try to never net the tail first. Go for the head first because the flounder can flip hard if spooked by your net hitting its tail. If they flip away hard, the teeth will cut your line, and away he goes. It’ll break your heart if he was a doormat size flounder.

White troutWhile you’re around these rigs, reefs and other struc-

tures, you may catch a fish thats looks a lot like a speck, but has no spots on it. This would be a white trout. He’s related to a speck — just not as big and without specks. White trout are still a great fish to fry and are fun to catch. Some trout grow to 18 inches and give a good fight.

Cut bait and cut up gulp baits work well.

Sheepshead and red fish During the summer around the rigs, you may also

catch a sheepshead. Sheepshead are great eating fish that fight like pit bulls. Some call sheepshead a bay snapper.

Red fish will also hang around the same areas. Red fish are my target fish almost every the time. They fight hard and eat great; not to mention around here they grow to around 50 pounds.

The best way to catch the big ones is on the sand bar at the mouth of Mobile Bay on the east side. Fish on falling tides using at least 30-pound set and 2-ounce slip sinker with a 5/0 to 7/0 kahle hook baited with a live 4 to 6-inch corker or live pogies around the same

size. Drift out of the pass on the east

side, and you’ll drift over the sand bar. Have your bait on the bottom and hold on. If there are other boats drifting just watch their rod tips.

Newspaper Fish During the summer months,

you may also catch kings, span-ish, black drum and a cobia or two. Most likely, the best fish in the bay are a triple tail, also known as the newspaper fish.

People used to spread newspa-per over the water on the up-wind side and follow it as the paper drifted across the bay. These fish seek floating structures at the surface, hang around under it and feed on the bait. These days, I think

floating newspaper might result in a conflict with the Marine Police. Therefore, it’s cheaper to fish with any-thing you find floating on the bay, as well as crab traps, float markers, channel markers or anything else you find standing in the water.

Use some stout equipment, as they guys can put up a serious fight and will wrap you around anything they can to slip the hook.

There have been some changes to the size and creel limits, so be sure to get a marine resource chart that has calenders and tide charts. The charts also explain any and all requirements and limits. It’s better to be sure about the law and it’s also nice to be polite to other boaters and fishermen while on the water. Stay safe and enjoy your time on the water. Call if I can help or answer any questions.

Call me anytime, 251-550-5418.Life is good and so is the fishing,

If you worked for an airline and had the opportunity to fly and live anywhere in the country or the world, where would you choose to live? Bill McGarry and his wife Sharon chose Gulf Shores.

Bill was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on May 20, 1943. Bill went to school at Grove City College and ma-jored in economics.

After graduating college, Bill tried to enlist. The Viet-nam War was going on, and he wanted to help. Even though he was an athlete, he flunked the physical be-cause of an asthmatic condition.

At that time, Atlantic Richfield was looking to em-ploy, and he went to work for them in sales. He stayed with them for about a year and a half. From there he took a job with Allegany Airlines, starting in Philadel-phia and working as a district sales manager. His job was to call on big commercial accounts, travel agents, groups and charters. He also handled public relations and civic affairs pertaining to the airlines.

The company changed it’s name from Allegany to U.S. AIR in 1979, and in 1996 it was changed to U.S. Airways.

Bill traveled constantly. He had a large territory and was in charge of several stations. He opened several sta-tions, handling the marketing. When opening a station Bill saw that it was done right.

While living in Nashville, Bill met Sharon, a school teacher living in his apartment complex, and they even-tually married. They’ve now been married for 35 years.

Bill retired after working for U. S. Airways for more than 30 years, and after a short time of not working, he got a job at the airport in Nashville with Southwest Air-lines. He worked for them for another 10 years. In 2010, he called it quits and took a second retirement.

Bill’s sister-in-law had bought a condo in the ‘80s in Phoenix 3, and Bill and his wife and children visited of-ten. They loved the area, and when an opportunity pre-sented itself, he bought a condo at Phoenix 7 even before the construction started.

Bill bought with the intention of eventually retiring here, and his dream started heading in that direction about four years ago. They were spending so much time down here that about two years ago, he sold his Nash-ville home and came south to be part of the local estab-lishment.

At that time he bought two more condos for invest-ment purposes, and when not rented, his extended fam-ily comes to visit and has a nice place to stay.

The McGarrys absolutely love it here. Bill and Sharon volunteer at the Christian Service Center in Gulf Shores. Sharon is active with the DAR and the Gulf Shores Wom-en’s Club. They feel good about helping others. When the snowbirds are here, Bill leads a water aerobics class at the pool in his condo. He’s a natural born motivational leader that people seek out and want to follow.

Bill and Sharon love to sail and own a 35-foot Cata-lina sailboat. They’re members of the Point Yacht Club at Pirates Cove, where Bill serves on the board. Sailing is one of his passions, but then again, he has so many. He

loves to cook and claims to have a gumbo that will rival any Cajun variety. He chal-lenges anyone from Louisiana to make it any better.

When possible, Bill plays golf, and al-though he is not a scratch golfer, he says he can keep up with a better-than-average challenger.

Bill also enjoys reading and has read every Tom Clan-cy book published.

They also love to travel, and one of the hard earned perks of working for the airlines is to be afforded the opportunity to fly anywhere in the world at discounted fares. They’ve been all over Europe, to Alaska, Canada, New Zealand and Mexico.

Bill is a wonderful gentleman, and it was a pleasure to meet him and his family. I feel like I’ve made a new friend, and I feel that we all are fortunate to have the McGarrys ON THE ISLAND.

Q & A with Robby Takac, bassist for Goo Goo Dolls by destiny brown

Robby Takac, bass player and longtime member of Goo Goo Dolls, offers some insight on the band's accomplishments, current plans and its first performance at The Wharf. The punk rock band is sched-uled to perform with Daughtry and The Plain White T's on Saturday, June 21.

Q: What’s the band currently working on?

A: We just finished an acoustic tour in the northeast. We had an opening band for the show with a couple of violins, mandolins, percussion and vocalists that would come out and join us during the show. We just finished that and then we start the production for the summer tour with Daughtry and the Plain White T’s that will be going on until November.

Q: What are some other bands Goo Goo dolls has toured with?

A: The Rolling Stones, Bon Jovi, Motorhead, The Replacements, Matchbox 20, Sugar Ray, Third Eye Blind, the list goes on and on and on.

Q: What are some of the band’s accomplishments?

A: We’ve done so much. We’ve played at the Olympics, on an air craft carrier in the Persian Gulf and on the top of a volcano in Spain. We’ve done a lot of stuff over the years for sure.

Q: is this your first time playing with daughtry and the plain White t's?

A: We have had some shows with him in the past. For ESPN I believe it was. Daughtry seems like a really nice guy and we talked about him joining up with us this summer and those conversations led to this tour. We played with Plain White T's not too long ago in Golden Gate Park.

Q: What kind of show can the audience expect?

A: A few new songs. There's a few songs that we're not going to get out alive without playing. It'll be a big rock show, man, and we've got a lot of plays on the radio and excited to bring it back this summer.

Q: is this your first time to the Gulf Coast?

A: It's our first time at that venue (the Wharf). I think we're playing at a place that's a little special and will give off a great vibe.

Hanging out at the beach can make you hungry. When it does, head out to one of our remarkable Gulf Shores and Orange Beach restaurants. With the world’s best inshore and offshore deep

sea fishing, you’ll find that succulent, fresh-off-the-boat seafood is the order of the day.

Of course, you don’t have to have seafood! You’ll find plenty of restaurants in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach serving barbecue, steak,

Italian, Japanese, Mexican, pizza, deli-style sandwiches and more.

DININGGUIDE


ingredientsn 4 pounds red potatoes n 2 cups mayonnaisen 1 cup sweet relishn 6 boiled eggsn 2 teaspoons saltn 1 teaspoon peppern 1/2 cup mustard

preparationCut potatoes and

Glosson is a Gulf Shores na-tive. She attended the University of Alabama, where she studied nursing and worked at Moe’s Original BBQ. There, she realized the restaurant business was her true calling. Glosson and co-own-er T.J. Allen knew they wanted to open their own restaurant, but just didn’t know what.

“Hog Wild was a huge bless-ing that fell into our hands, and we were able to create some amazing homemade barbecue,” Glosson said. “Potato salad is one of our favorite sides and is a classic addition to barbecue.”

Glosson’s potato salad is a mixture of family recipes made into her own.
