    Hay, don't laugh, bed bugs are now epidemic in this country. Wife wants to strangle me for diving in those holes, imagine brigging back bugs to infest the house!

    When i did my first dives in Marianna, i used to stay there and it was usually clean-ish w/o squatters (bugs). Then i wanted to use the fridge one night. Oooops. I have stayed át. The one across the street once - no bugs the one time. The Microtel was ok and the Country Inn was pretty nice. The cleanest só far was the Fairfield and if you ask real nice and beg and plead, you night be able to get The $60/night I once got. Im heading up next weekend and might try the HI or back to the ABI. Sorry for strange characters/spelling, my português spell/grammar checker on my iPod hás fits with English and it is a pain to correct. Have a great trip.

    Here's a list of all the hotels in Marianna (that I haven't heard bad reviews on), along with phone numbers and links - Hotels in Marianna. Where you stay will depend on your budget. All the hotels near the interstate will run you in the $70-90/night range, much less in town.

    What ever happened to the Sandusky? That's were we used to stay. It wasn't the Hilton, but I don't remember any bugs.

    If you like to camp , Florida Caverns State Park is close to The Pond and has excellent amenities plus free bugs.

    After retiring from the Army (They still had pup tents when I was in), my idea of camping is a Marriott!

    It's bad luck to be superstitious.

    Today?

    What does "telecons" mean exactly?

    No flaming but does it mean you were involved in a telephone conference with all those in attendance or does it mean you simply called the ME for information?
