Travelling off of I 95

Cypress Creek Hunting Lodge (2.5 hrs to Cyprus Creek / 8 hrs to
Orlando)
Do you hunt? Does your significant other hunt? You could travel together and you could
continue on to Orlando alone…If you take Exit 97 off of I 95 in Santee and
travel for 2.5 hours, you will arrive near the Savannah River in the low
country of South Carolina. A premier hunting lodge, Cyprus Creek Hunting Lodge has Hog Hunting from 4/1-9/31 and Alligator
Hunting from 9/1-10/15. This costs way
more than Sewcation… so maybe you
can finagle a retreat or two next year!
My question? Do they do something
with the meat? Wondering! A harvested
gator of 11’ + costs $3,500! Get some Market money before youLargest crab, split up! ( http://www.cypresscreekhunting.com)

Fisherman and Shark Photo-Op
To the left of the giant crab is a statue of a grinning fisherman in a yellow rain slicker
holding a fish. The “gag” is for you to
stand behind him and next to your catch -- a huge shark, dead, with
toothy mouth agape, dangling from a scaffold. (9593 N Kings Hwy)

WonderWorks
WonderWorks Is one of Myrtle Beach’s
top attractions.
The upside-down building is hard to miss.
When you enter the building,
everything will be upside-down. To
participate in the fun, you must be inverted by stepping inside the inversion
tunnel and,
be turned right side up to begin your journey. Once you are
properly aligned there are more than 100 hands on exhibits on 4 floors. (on the
