The President bypassed Paula's for there. Heard Paula was not happy about it.

We agree with you 100%.....

Brad,

We camped here in May or June last year. We have the same opinion as Bill. After the big fire, most of that state highway drive off US-1 into the Okeefenokee Swamp is now open land. We had remembered that drive being forested previously. Lots of small gators at the swamp tourist site. Maybe all the big boys were in the water. Didn't see any gators at Laura Walker.

Speaking of big fires, this is probably a good time for you to camp there. Someone else already burned the place down.

Brad, check out Hunting Island SP near Beaufort. On a barrier island , the Park is fairly large with lots of easy beach access, trails , alligators, and historic lighthouse. The campground has some ocean front sites if you are lucky enough to get one. It is very tropical down there, one of our favorites.

What a timely thread this is. Wife and I will be spending 3 days in Savannah in April. I already have made reservations at Tybee Island before I read this thread. Unfortunatly we will not be able to go to Mrs. Wilkes since they are not open on the weekend. Any suggestions for bird watching in the area? The Warblers should be in full migration then.
