I am not sure what your route is, but if you are coming down 65, check out The Briary just below Birmingham. I got PCB a pot, and I know of no pipe shops down there.
Oh boy, I'm keeping my wife away from that picture of J Michaels. She's a food writer who long specialized in authentic rather than fancy. One look at the J Michaels photo and we could be driving all night. No kidding, it looks like really good eating. Here locally, we're planning to check out Kim's Korean Restaurant which is sidled in with the Korean grocery. I'm thinking dumplings, kim chi, and rice. We have a great Laotian restaurant in town ... not too many of them around. Back near her home place, we like Keith's Steak House in Memphis, Mo., with thousands of coffee mugs hanging in the rafters.
I will try out JMichaels for sure. The 85% sales tax is outrageous! Unfortunately I won't be headed near Birmingham. We only have to clip the southwestern part of Alabama coming in. I was hoping for better news concerning a pipe shop. I couldn't care less about going to the beach but I got outvoted by the wife and kids. I guess I can go sweat my tail off on the beach and wait on supper time.
Cigar Factory social club in Miramar Beach. Not s place to purchase pipe related product but great place to smoke, have a beverage and hang out.
There're some places in Pensacola, but that's about an hour & a half west of PCB, so that probably doesn't help. I can get you the info if you like, though?
I lived in the Panhandle for about 15 yrs; HPG's right. It's only about 50 miles, a bit over an hour unless US 98 is incredibly crowded.
(BTW, I said P'cola was about an hour & a half from PC, & it is, unless 98 is royally bad, which it can be at this time of year. Speed limit between Ft. Walton Beach & P'cola is mostly 45, with only roughly a 10-mile stretch of 55. The cops in Gulf Breeze are tough on speeders too. You can ask my kid. -evyl grin-)
No prob, pepe'. 
Like a lotta places in the sunshine state, the names are similar enough to get hosed up on if your head's on local geography. If somebody said Escambia county, my first thought'd be Pensacola, not southern AL. }

We've been in Gulf Shores (AL) all week, the weather has been terrific (not too hot), hope that holds for you!
