Mark today on your calendars. I am driving to downtown Panty Maw, during Spring Break. Lord help me, I know not what I am doing. I guestimate no longer than 5 hours driving round trip. :bang:

I made it back -- only 3.5 hours round trip driving time to drive sixty miles. Did I mention that I dislike sitting in traffic? ...and I am doing it again tomorrow, :puke:. For the record, I did not go to PCB, but Downtown PC, which is a different town with no beach, nor any naked boobie flashes, but the traffic was still a nightmare trying to get across that bridge. If I did ever decide to go to PCB during spring break, I would definitely ride my bicycle because it would be so much faster than being stuck in traffic.
SJ I had to go to downtown PC one time in some major traffic that I knew was going to take at least two and half hours or more. Someone told me to go a different way and I did. The only way I know how to tell you is - I went East on 98 to 79, took left onto 79 and crossed the West Bay Bridge and took the first right at the base of the bridge after you cross it. I don't remember if I ever had to turn after that (if I did it would have been only once, or I would remember). I spent about 25 minutes on that road. Don't know if that would help, but at least you wouldn't have to just sit in traffic and may see something new. I am sure anyone around the 98/79 intersection could tell you the exact directions (whether there was an additional turn or not). Hope this helps.

Are we neighbors? Do you have a big ol' sun on your house? I love that sun!
Hello gotothebeachmom - We may be neighbors but the house with the sun is not mine. My place is at The Villas at Seacrest Beach.

I am very familiar with that drive. St Joe's RiverCamps is on that road, Hwy 381, I think it is called. I know of another shortcut that I should have taken to avoid bridge traffic, but I was stuck in the left lane and missed it. I also forgot how terrible traffic is on 15th St. I will take Beach Dr tomorrow. 😀

Girl, you know I can hang with those party kids, althought hanging with the wet boobie girls, I could hang just fine. I get out of bed in the morning when they those party people are going to the Waffle House for late night snack before they go to bed.
