Re: New to the Panacea area

Thanks for all the helpful info...I really appreciate it. Also, sorry for the confusion on exactly where we will be staying. I didn't realize that 98 bridge over och bay actually ran north to south. With that in mind we will be staying NE of the bridge right there at Angelo's. I've attached a map wi...
