Did I dream there used to be hot dog & snowball shacks right on the beach?

Having come back from another summer vacation where we went to St George, Cape San Blas, Port St Joe and 30a beaches I have to say the days on the beach are not that enjoyable because half the time once we've drug everything out there one of the kids wants to go home & poop or you realize you forgot the beer or some other nonsense.

I thought back in the day there were little kite stores, hot dog stands, popsicle stands, etc. on the beaches. Did I dream that? Or did new rules go into effect after the 1970s and 80s where those types of things are no longer allowed?

It just seems like the beaches were more fun as a kid than they are now when you have to lug a closet full of stuff back & forth with you.

Nah, the crack of dawn pop up tent mofos took all the good spots. This shite is getting out of hand.

Can't speak for those places but I had friends from college in the 80's that were
life guards on HHI and the also ran a concession stand on the beach along with renting out Hobi Cats...made a shitload for college kids and more than enough to pay for their education.

I don't know that I've ever seen concessions on the beach around NW Florida ...maybe PCB.
