Get tickets and take the ferry to Cumberland Island for a day. You may also want to go over to the east side of the Okefenokee Swamp at Folkston. I don't know about shopping, sorry.

I second nedraw's suggestion to go to Cumberland Island and Okefenokee Swamp. At some point you may want to make reservations for the ferry to Cumberland Island - they only take so many passengers per day.

I don't know how close St. Simon's Island is, but I'd think the shopping would be better there than St. Marys.

Have fun!

Mature Pinus pinea in south Georgia

Yes, that's not anything near mature. This is a tall species, growing over 60'. I have seen multiple examples the size of one shown just in my bailiwick, where it is sold as a tabletop Christmas tree. Sometimes the needles are scorched by cold here, the point where this starts may be around 15 degrees F. Nevertheless, it has managed to produce persisting specimens 50' tall in Seattle.

Planting beets in south Georgia

Broccoli is very easy to grow. I start in a cold frame around February 1, transplant into the soil in late March early April. Nothing special(just plow, disk, add a liitle 10-10-10 and set)I keep the cabbage worms off with Bt. Varieties that I grown well over the past five years are Superdome, Galleon, Blue Wind, Early Dividend, Green Comet, Barbados, Everest,Packman, Green Goliath. Varieties that have been less than expected include Belstar, Bonanza and Gypsy. In the past I have grown many of the older varieties include some of the sprouting broccolis, but I like nice heads so I no longer play with them. As for beets, Improved Blood Turnip, Crosby's Egyptian, Merlin, Cylindra, Early Wonder, Ruby Queen, Red Cloud, Kestrel, Chicago Red, Pacemaker III. I tried Detroit Dark Red back in the fifties, but I never liked them, so I don't play with them anymore.

presuming you do not want it in your pots.. peruse the link .. and sterilize yoru potting media before use ... even if you buy new ... i am also thinking.. you are reusing the pots/media ... and you probably have a billion seed in it.. so time to change out the media ... ken http://www.coopext.colostate.edu/4DMG/Soil/sterile.htm

Savannah is a great place to visit, probably about 1 hr drive away.

Well a quick google search can give you a LONG list of things to do in South Georgia, other than that if you're going to fly see if the big travel sites have any good deals - bookit dot com is pretty new and has a lot of package deals. The link below is for Mexico but should give you an idea of the package deals it has.

Here is a link that might be useful: mexico travel deals
