Beach reports tourism records; July condo occupancy approached 80 percent - Breaking News from the Press-Register - al.com: "FOLEY, Ala. -- When Meyer Real Estate opens its Gulf Shores and Orange Beach offices this morning, the firm will check in more vacationers arriving for the holiday weekend than it has on any other day this summer, said Sarah Kuzma, a company spokeswoman.
