while heading down, were going to stay a night in Alabama. Have the dog with us and a 15 hour trip with the dog is brutal on the wife(dog wants to ride in her lap, it's a 55lb dog)
Dothan, unfortunately, the hotel i wanted is booked. Need a residence in type of place. 4 couple going.
So what city? Looking for some where in the 4 hours from Port st.joe area. Montgomery?

I would think Montgomery is going to be more than 4 hours from Port St. Joe. Maybe Troy but not sure of hotels in that area. Dothan best but sounds like that is out.

If you can make it to Dothan you might as well drive 2 or 3 more hours and reach your destination. You could stay in Marianna FL where you cross I10.

Montgomery or Troy would be the places you're looking for.

Google maps says Montgomery is about 4 hours away from PSJ. You probably won't be able to check in until late afternoon (3-ish?) anyway.
Never stayed in Port St. Joe, but have been to St. Joseph's Peninsula/Cape San Blas a few times. Very peaceful area.

Condolences in advance for driving on the RCC.
Generally a faster, definitely a safer route through Montgomery is to take I-85 (Atlanta exit) from I-65 then take exit 9(Taylor Road/SR 271) on I-85. Taylor Road dead ends with US 231 South of Montgomery. Of course if you want to find some crack, a street-walker, or maybe even both, then take the Southern Blvd through Montgomery.
There are a total of 3 traffic light cameras on Taylor Road - (1) Eastchase Parkway - the second light after you're on Taylor Road; (2) At Vaughn Road - the only major intersection on Taylor Road - McD's on right just before light; (3) at US 231 South - both lanes turn left, so try to avoid being behind a large truck - green light is short.
Be aware that there is ongoing construction in both directions between Montgomery and Troy.
Also, just north of Prattville, between exit 186 and 181, there is an area where every week I see two state troopers doing their best to balance the Alabama state budget mainly using the Ka band.
If you have Waze, use it!
