Petunia wants to go camping somewhere near Appalachacola. The city is famous for their oysters but with only 2,000 people living there they have a limited number of motels.
There is Appalachacola National Forest with three campgrounds almost next door to the oyster mecca. I'd like to go canoing there. The park is the largest forests in the state. A friend of mine (RIP) said when he camped there he wanted to sell his clothes and not come back.
Any recommendations?

I just checked out all six of the campgrounds in Appalachacola National Forest and ALL SIX are "temporarily closed" due to hurricane damage. They're near Mexico Beach, Florida, a town largely leveled from last year's hurricane.

I ran across this while web surfing "Some recreation areas on the Apalachicola National Forest remain closed because of impacts from Hurricane Michael. Please check the Recreation Conditions Report to see if your favorite area is open."
Problem: the national forest service didn't mention which areas they are.
Research continues.

It sounds like you have one major recommendation already, in your friend's words about his clothes. Was he at a nudist center?
I have not been there. Please let us know though.

If Patrick had gone to the nudist center, he would have mentioned it.
So far the only video I've seen of the area was a guy in a pine forest demonstrating how to fiddle for worms.
I'm not a fan of pine tree forests because they're always dripping pine tree sap on things, especially if you park a car under one.

Posted by CallMeDaveI've never been a big wildflower person, but this is the season for it here in Appalachia. Other people can identify every variety. I'm not there yet.
