XI
Welcome
Welcome to the eleventh edition of The Alys Journal. Summertime has settled in along with friends and families from around the country, here to spend precious vacation time with us along this beautiful coastline. July in these parts brings a bustle of activity, slow and unstructured, a pace of relaxation and togetherness. Freedom rings within the sounds of laughter and the sensation of a frolic in the Gulf waters. July here means sunshine and afternoon showers, patriotic parades and bunting-lined porches, watermelon and ice cream, the joys of summer. We hope you’re able to celebrate the season with us here at Alys and, if you happen to be celebrating from afar, we hope this issue transports you here, with us, for a moment in time. We hope you feel connected and held close with the tales of happenings amongst the town of Alys Beach.
“Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.” ― Hans Christian Anderson (Danish author, 1805-1875)

On The Market
We continue to experience a high volume of sales interest as spending patterns have turned more domestic, both in travel and in focus on the home, with an emphasis on stability and legacy-building.
“July is not only a season of the year; it is a season of the mind and memory. Hot days and sultry nights and crashing thunderstorms are a part of July, and to the drone of bees in the clover fields will soon be added the high-pitched sibilance of the cicada.”
