Alford Inquiry:
| Q. | Anytime my family heads to Panama City Beach, we come through Alford and on our way home it has become a tradition to stop at "Old Schoolhouse Antiques." We have not been to the beach in several years, but my husband I plan to celebrate our 27th wedding anniversary there the weekend of Feb. 10. Is the antiques shop still there and still open? Could you possibly give me information on the hours? The people there are always so friendly and wonderful. We hope to visit them soon! Thanks. | | A. | We called the Old School Antiques (850.579.3915) and they know you will be coming through during your celebration. Their hours are 1 to 4 PM each day (1-5 PM Sunday) but closed on Monday. Congratulations from us at FloridaView and enjoy your visit at the Beach and your tradition in Alford.
