St George's Island State Park











On Sunday we moved across the state to this island state park. This is the closest we've come to camping "on the beach". Not right on but walking distance away. I liked the park pretty well. Except for 1 thing...we thought the mosquitoes would carry us away. That and no cell phone or Internet signal meant we didn't stay as long as we would have. And, I "wouldn't let" Mr P get in the water since they had shark warning flags flying. I just didn't think he'd make good shark bait.
The gulf shoreline is very pretty in the area. This is called the "forgotten" part of Florida. Popular with fisherman but pretty isolated overall. Many of the houses on the island looked new so we thought there was likely a lot of hurricane damage in the recent past.
