Default Looking for Hobby Shop in SW Alabama

Well I'm Moving to Greenville Al in a couple of weeks. Will go back to my old club in Montgomery 40 mi up I65. The small hobby shop in Montgomery closed or isn't doing RC planes from what I was told. Are there and good shops in SW Alabama. Hate to think I have to go over the internet for everything.

Thanks, Pete

WOW,
That's what I thought NADA

Hope the house I'm buying is still there after Ivan moves through.

I think there are a couple of shops in Mobile, one on Schillinger Road. It has been a number of years since I went to the shops but I am sure there are some still there.

I know there is one in Pensacola, Bobe's Hobby Shop. They have been around since the mid 1950's. I don't think the owner, Clint Bobe, works in the shop anymore but it is now run by his son Donnie. I think I am correct on that. It has been a long time since I have been there but it seems like I spent half my life in there when I was a kid.
