49 years after opening, Gator’s Seafood still going strong

Written by Hansen Hasenberg on . Posted in Business, Community.

A staple of the East Milton food scene is back for summer.

Gator’s Seafood, which has been serving customers since 1975 at its 4030 Farrington Road location, reopened its doors Friday, June 7. The restaurant operates seasonally, opening each June and closing in late summer.

Bill Farrington, the owner, is carrying on his parents’ legacy. His father, Earl, started the restaurant in March of 1975 on family property. The restaurant is within earshot of where Earl was raised, Farrington said.

Written by Hansen Hasenberg on . Posted in Community, News.

The Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office has two new faces, however, they won’t be donning a badge. They are public information officers, responsible for releasing pertinent information concerning the agency to the public.

For the past few years, Jillian Durkin has held the role, helping facilitate press conferences, interviews with the Sheriff, and being a public face of the agency at community events. To replace Durkin, who left the agency in June, the Sheriff’s Office has named Mikiko Tucker as public information officer (PIO) and Kylie Blankenship as assistant PIO.

Sea turtle nests up to four with two in danger of washout

Written by Hansen Hasenberg on . Posted in Beach, News.

May is the official start of sea turtle nesting on Navarre Beach, but June has been three times as busy as May this year. According to Cathy Holmes, founder of Navarre Beach Sea Turtle Conservation Center, four nests have already been found on Navarre Beach. Three of those nests were found in June.

With an average of between seven and 15 nests per season, seeing four halfway into June is a good trend toward a higher-than-average number of nests by October, when the season ends.

For God’s Sake: what really matters?

Written by Michael Bannon on . Posted in For God's Sake, Opinion.

Technology is great…when it works! The church I serve as pastor livestreams its worship services and occasionally there is a glitch in the technology and our livestream is, well, a dead-stream. That happened this past Lord’s Day and was only discovered at the end of the worship service. My immediate thought? “Okay, nobody leaves! We’re going to do this worship service again!” Of course, that was my frustration talking and the thought was never vocalized. Instead, I perused the coming week in my mind to determine when I could at least record the sermon and make it available.

Out and About

This week I’m writing about mosquito control because they are out of control. I was trying to talk to my new neighbors, who recently moved here from Alaska, around dusk last week and we were all swatting mosquitos and dancing around trying to get out of the mosquitoes’ way. They were relentless. My feet and ankles were on fire. I finally had to tell our new neighbors that I just couldn’t chat anymore because – I couldn’t. I high tailed it back into my house – while zig-zagging back and forth trying to throw the mosquitos off my tail. I have found a few trying to follow me in my house. I found out that in the few months that our new neighbors have been here, they have also found the mosquitos to be overly plentiful. They had already invested in some kind of mosquito magnet machine that kills mosquitoes.  I would have checked it out if I didn’t have to literally run away.
