I found this film by recalling a story book tale "The Frog of Lake Okefenokee" and decided to see what it really was. What a wonderful video. I wish it had been twice as long.

My great grandmother and her siblings were from the area near this swamp before moving to the Midwest. during the great migration. I want to go visit the swamp and the entire region out of solidarity for my ancestors. Her oldest sibling i met in 2006. Never got the chance to meet my great grandma, blessed to have met her eldest sister.

My dad Junior Bell loved the swamp. Loved going fishing there in Folkston, Ga. He took me once with him and a teenage-alligator jumped in our john-boat. O_O

What if James Grider called it a cum bucket list? LOL. People need to buy my "Impact" a James Grider novel on Amazon so maybe I can afford to move to a swampoop like that. James Grider could dispatch an attacking gator by spawning the Wykkdik of Fhekris through its body.

I recognized a lot of the area on the video from camping and paddling trips. Been on three different trips across it and several single overnight ones. It is the best place for a 4 or 5 night wilderness canoe trip. Then completed extended trips down the St Marys River and Suwanee River over the years.
