Hunting Island State Park, SC June 21, 2012

We used to come to Hunting Island and stay in the State Park cabins until they were all closed down to be demolished or else were washed away by the eroding surf two years ago.  We thought it was paradise where the tiny deer came up to your cabin, the raccoons to your door, the pelicans flew overhead and the dolphins swam up close to you in the water.  You can still hike there by going into the woods/jungle at the end of the lagoon, following the lagoon almost to the far end and meeting up with a trail that winds around until you cross the highway and go out onto a boardwalk across the marsh which goes to two hummocks inhabited by birds and crabbs and sometimes an alligator.
