Panama City Beach Future

O.K. sorry to offend those who love the Waffle House. The point I was trying to make was that just because someone is "working class" doesn't mean that they will be satisfied with nasty accomodations. Most people work all year to get a week's vacation. If the old places are clean and well run, that's fine and good, but a lot of PCB is run down and nasty.

I thought Yankees were foreigners. What about Mormons?

What does that have to do with anything?

"...but a lot of PCB is run down and nasty..."


Actually ,it is now mostly torn-down and rubble.

I will take '50s kitch over 2006 mamoth-tower-with
parking garage any day.

OMG stop. You will have me in tears soon. I loved Petticoat Junction. This place has just about become unrecognizable now. Petticoat was where Walmart now stands. Let me weigh this in my mind:scratch: . Nope, I'd rather have Petticoat.

Shelly,

And if the Rednecks can't afford to stay in PCB, they'll just have to day trip from south Alabama.

I do miss the Miracle Strip Amusement Park, though. But I guess we can always spend our time at the Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum

You might be a Redneck IF: You took your honeymoon photos to Ripley's Believe It Or Not and had to sleep there cause you could not afford to stay in a condo at PCB.

It used to be so nice to drive down the street and actually SEE the ocean.

just returned from a trip to the Forgotten Coast...Mexico Beach, Port St. Joe,
Apalach, St. George...you can actually drive and see the Gulf. Pretty quiet, seems as though some of the high end construction has stopped....

So, maybe there will be some of the old Florida feel left after all....
