Woody: I've been doing some surfing and Little Talbot Island State Park looks real good Its right on the coast at Jacksonville on one of the barrier islands with I 95/10/75 all coming into the area to pull in from the North the south and the east. about 400 miles from me in Fayetteville NC and about 350 I think from Miami. Columbia is about 300. Check out their site and see what you think. I have no idea what the weather is like there in Feb but it has to be better than here at that time. What do you Carolina folks think ? And Woody; Pisgah wasn't just fun it was great.

I was looking at Anastasia State park by St. Augustine on the floridastateparks.org site. The reviews I read looked good. I was considering that as well. I will check out little Talbot state park as well. Give me a couple of seconds.

St augustine or close by gets my vote,,a little further but a lot prettier town,,long as they got 115v,, it can be a bit cool in northern Fla,,heck it can be down right cold,,spent 2 years in Jax,,,when its cold its real cold

just a couple of cents worth

A barrier Island in winter might be cold. I have a cousin that lives in Jacksonville area I will have give her a call to find out the weather at that time of the year.

[Woody]

It really depends on the cold fronts that pass thru that time of the year. I live by Ft. Lauderdale and it can get a wee bit nippy at times here. That is why I moved here 18 years ago. I am originally from Iowa (lower Siberia) and that is cold. Since I have been here I devoloped a new motto "I will never be colder than my Beer again"

it is a bit hard to have a glass of wine at room temp when the temp is 15 below,,,,,

[Woody]

Well at least you don"t have to worry about chillin' the bottle before serving

[ALAN GEDDES]

Check it out and make a decision. You the man. Count on me and Chip to show.

[Woody]

Okay, Little Talbot Island or Anastasia State Parks. They both look good. Talbot according to their site only has 40 sites which services all the Talbot state park areas and the other has 139 sites. They both are near the ocean. I have not had a chance to call them yet. I will do that tomorrow. When in Feb. is good. I have a BSA campout I think in Feb., I am not sure of the date. I will call both parks and find out info. and relay it you guys

[Chip]

which ever one has the best looking areas,,,we wont hold ya responsible if it is not perfect,,,its gonna be the folks that make the trip good not the site,,,,let us know

You have two of the Carolinas Crew so get your Florida folk lined up. Chip: If we leave Myrtle beach and drive slowly south we don't even hav to go home. Woody: Why don't you start a new thread for this called North Florida in Feb or something so it catches the eye.

[Chip]

Alan: the slow trip to Fla sounds real good,,but the work thing is getting in the way of me having fun,,,Ill make a deal wid ya,,if either of us wins the lottery then we both quit, and do a real slow trip to Fla, and then to get back home take a slight jag to maybe Mexico, Alaska, cross Canada, and hit all 47 of the states getting home,,lets make it a real trip,,,Ill let ya know if I win,,till then Its gonna have to be a long weekend,,dang!!!
reality really bits,,back to the real world,,
