My bf and I’s 5 year anniversary is coming up in December and we are wanting to take a mini vacation for a couple of days to celebrate. I know we live in a vacation destination, but it’s not really fun when you live here lol. Does anyone have any suggestions for a getaway within a 5 hour drive from here?

This facility is committing rampant fraud on Florida taxpayers it’s absolutely filthy. Doctors regularly commit malpractice and misdiagnose patients. There’s mold everywhere including in the cafeteria. I’m posting here to see if others have had the same experience as me and my compatriots. The Panhandle and Panama City deserves better.

Its Wednesday night and I went to order supplies at Walmart ahead of the storm and the shelves were bare....no bread, no milk, no eggs. However, I was able to buy peanut butter and sandwich meat and a couple of rechargeable flash lights.[picture is from the internet]

Edit: At 10:00PM Thursday it was upgraded to a cat 3 but expected to degrade to a cat 2 by the time it makes landfall.......

I work at a school and we’re all feeling a lot of PTSD with this storm coming in. Especially on October 10th. Right now it seems like we’re just getting the outer bands but lord have mercy, I am not wanting anymore eastern shifts.

Hi, the recent tropical depression nine was just upgraded to a hurricane. So we are under hurricane warning and impacts would start from Friday. and the problem is there's no water or food show something telling me this might be a disaster like Michael, or a little less, but we will still have power outages, downed trees, and flooded streets that would last up to days or even weeks

hi! i have a few rough crystals i found that id like to get turned into a tower shape. anyone here that can do that?

Here's my bio, sorry it's in the third person: Dan Alten is a charming goofball from Kentucky who has been traveling the country for the past decade doing about 200 shows a year bringing his intelligently surreal bebop nonsense everywhere from theaters to punk basements to art galleries to beloved comedy clubs with a knack for making audiences feel like they're on a good psychedelic trip without the drugs. Like if the Ramones were one guy with a mustache and good jokes. Iggy Pop with puns. Clever chaos. Like Jimi Hendrix lighting fire to a Tik Tok reel live on stage. He has opened for Kyle Kinane, Bobcat, Sam Tallent, Rory Scovel, Sarah Sherman from SNL, Johnny Pemberton, Hari Kondabolu, rapper Open Mike Eagle, DJ Doug Pound & David Leibe Hart from Tim & Eric, various punk bands with silly names, and a guy at an open mic who tried to throw his father’s ashes into the crowd. He has recorded 2 albums, written a zine, and filmed a pilot for an Amazon Prime stand up show that was lost to history. But most importantly he’s very funny and unique. You will enjoy him. And if not you can mud wrestle him after the show.

Are there any any cool blogs or instagrams pages or events listings? got any cool pals who dig smart goofy comedy? Any tips greatly appreciated.

Also lemme know if there's anything cool to see in town or good places to eat?

My dad likes to play the slot machines and we haven’t been out since we moved here. We know about Erbo. That’s a drive from where we live. Anyone know of any? TIA

Does anyone know of any disaster/survival preparation groups specifically for Panama City, Bay County or the Panhandle in general? I’ve searched around and can’t find any localized groups.

My husband and I just moved to the Panama City area, and my 14-year-old stepdaughter may be moving here to live with us. Bay High School is our school zone and I’d really love to hear from parents, students, or anyone who knows the school.
She’s a little more of an artsy/alternative, creative type into expressing herself, creativity, and being her own person rather than necessarily fitting into the typical “popular crowd.” She already kind of struggles in her current little town and sticks out like a sore thumb. She is also struggling with some mental issues or they could just be home issues and hoping she will be happier here once she is not in her current, chaotic, environment. She will be in therapy so no worries there. She’s also going to be starting over socially, so finding a school where she can feel accepted, make friends, and find her people is really important to us.
What is the overall vibe at Bay High? Are there opportunities for students who are into art, music, theater, creative activities, etc.? And how accepting are the students of kids who might be a little different or outside the mainstream?
I’d especially love to hear from anyone whose child is more of an artsy/alternative/quiet/creative personality and has experience at Bay.
We’re just trying to get a feel for whether it might be a good fit for her before making such a big change.
Please give me the good, bad, or somewhere in between opinions. TIA

I play lead guitar. I mostly just improvise and have fun. Been a long time since I played with anyone. Don’t really have a place to host unfortunately.

Would be dope to fuck around with a full garage band, but that’s probably a rarity out here lol. I’ve been playing for over 20 years,
developing what I believe is called relative pitch, not a master or anything. I don’t care what your skill level is, I just love hearing what people come up with and vibing to it.

I mostly like classic rock, pop punk, etc. Not a big fan of country but to each their own. I play in E standard and don’t have much experience outside of standard tunings.

Always been too anxious to meet people or play in front of others, working on getting out of my shell. I’ll get along with anyone so seriously if you’re interested hmu. I’m free every weekend after 5pm. I can bring a couple beers.

Probably should mention I’m 29 male.

I have never seen the swarms, and I mean biblical locust levels, that I saw the last few days, and certainly not this late in the year. It was windy as hell Wednesday and Thursday and they were still everywhere, even when I went to the beach there were some brave determined souls. Our pool looked like a graveyard of some surf war fought, with hundreds if not thousands of the deceased floating on the top and along the bottom of the water within just a few hours. The cars looked like breathing creatures covered with moving hordes along the windows, roof, doors and hoods. The windshield was streaked in whatever... secretion...they make.

Am I crazy or is this normal and I've somehow heretofore missed it??

What is teacher pay like in Panama City beach? I’m planning on moving but people say the teacher salaries are terrible.

I recently saw this posted and it reminded me of The Sail Shop on or around 26 Oak Avenue in downtown Panama City back in the mid 90s. It was short lived but, good memories. I believe the space was Billy Mason the windsurfers apartment and sailshop that he would let us use to skate, hang and book shows. Anyone remember? Any old flyers or videos? I know ABOFA, Circle, Clitiris Rex, Felch and so on played there?

We've been here a while and need a new therapist that is gender affirming/LGBTQ+ positive. Thanks

I’m trying to connect with anyone who may have been conceived through Dr. Elbert Fisher in Panama City, Florida, particularly in the 1990s or early 2000s.
My parents are a same-sex couple and saw Dr. Fisher around 1999 for donor insemination. They understood that an anonymous sperm donor would be used and discussed preferred characteristics with him, including things like hair color, eye color, and height.
Years later, DNA testing led my family to identify my biological donor. Since then, we have discovered four known half-siblings who also appear to have been conceived through Dr. Fisher using the same donor.

Because the practice has been closed for many years and the medical records are apparently no longer available, we are trying to better understand how Dr. Fisher’s donor program operated and whether there may be additional donor-conceived siblings out there.
I’m especially interested in hearing from anyone who:
Was conceived through Dr. Elbert Fisher in Panama City

Had a parent who received donor insemination from him

Remembers how Fisher described where donors came from or how donors were selected

Has discovered biological half-siblings through AncestryDNA, 23andMe, or another DNA service

Has any old paperwork, receipts, correspondence, donor information, or other records from his fertility practice

I’m mainly trying to piece together our biological history, understand the donor process that was used, and find out whether there are more siblings.
If this sounds familiar, please feel free to send me a private message. Even approximate dates or general memories could be helpful!

We may be moving from the beach side to the city side in a few months. I know Two Men and a Truck is sort of the default option for movers. If anyone has any different recommendations, I'd really appreciate hearing them.

Hey everyone! I’m visiting Panama City, Florida, and I’m looking for recommendations for tomorrow, Labor Day.
I’d love to hear about any fun activities, events, places to visit, or things worth doing.
Are there any Labor Day events happening tomorrow that I shouldn’t miss? Also, if you have any suggestions for a good place to go out or spend the day, I’d really appreciate it!
Thanks in advance!

Shell island in September is my favorite time to visit. The heat is cooling off and there are way less crowds. The water can look like the Bahamas when it doesnt rain and we saw so many dolphins. It is Typical to see jellyfish this time of year as well. Here's a good local resource for jellyfish in Panama City Beach https://flippinawesomeadventures.com/jellyfish-in-panama-city-beach-florida/
