[Paddlewise] Road trip!

It's time for a break from Maine in winter, and so I will be driving to 
Florida, to visit parents near Sarasota, and also to attend Sweetwater 
Kayaks symposium Feb 25 - 27.    Conventional wisdom is that it takes 3 
days to drive to Florida.  Right now, I'm thinking the drive could be 
somewhat more leisurely, and I may want to stop and put my boat in the 
water along the way, and/or at various spots along the Gulf coast....I plan 
to leave Maine Friday, February 18, and be at the symposium on Friday, 
February 25.

I'm wondering if any Paddlewisers have any suggestions for good 
paddling spots / put-ins along the east coast or Gulf Coast, or "must-see-
paddle" places, or good camping spots / cheap motels (or good spots to 
eat!)....(I have a particular curiosity about the coast of South Carolina 
and Georgia, but am interested in the whole route as well.)

Thanks for any information you care to share, publicly or privately.
