Quality Inn Manning

I-95 stopover.... Manning, SC

by davecallahan

4000 friendly people.

I broke my glasses. I can't drive without them.
We stopped in Manning and people directed us to Dollar General where I was able to get some stuff to mend the glasses.

Decided to make it a stopover night on our way to Savannah.
Found a good motel right on the main drag with a great "truckers" restaurant across the street. (truckers know the good food).
