"Palm Coast, FL - Salt Water Canals - Sales Update"

Back in 1999, I'd never heard of Palm Coast, FL, but was in Flagler Beach for a wedding.  The canals of Palm Coast caught my eye.  Back then, they were a bargain.  I moved here in 2001, at the beginning of the real estate explosion.  I got a bargain on a house on a canal, the week after 9-11.  These canals are really a very unique part of the Palm Coast aura.  Well, as circumstances would have it, they are again a bargain in 2010!
