I heard that two cars, one in Seaside and one in Seagrove were set on fire last night. Anybody else hear this? I truly hope that this rumor is not true.

Saw the one SUV on Grove as we headed to 'our' house. hope nothing else happens. So glad no one was hurt.
Also, strange site at Grayton. A girl's bathing suit bottom, cowboy shoes, and maybe purse. Didn't look into it. Hope nothing happened. Ellen
