Day 10 Still in Grayton

It was a fun weekend in the area around Grayton Beach. Unknown to us, it was this weekend there was the Route 30a Songwriters Festival. About 50 songwriter/artists from around the country came to the South Walton beach area and performed at 15 or so different venues (mostly bars). This was the first festival of this type they had tried and it was a tremendous success. Unfortunately we were unable to get tickets since they were sold out a few weeks ago, but we still managed to be places where we could hear good music. There were musicians all over town and they would show up to listen to whoever happen to be playing. It seems as though every bar and restaurant has music most every night. Grayton Beach has no more than 100 houses and one of them is belongs to Sheryl Crow. We didn't see her, but her house is a half a block up the street.
