I've been to Hilton Head twice before, but for some reason it never had the impression on me as it did this time. I never really noticed, or appreciated, how big nature is on the island! Nothing is allowed to be built higher than the tree-line, and all the buildings have to be earth tones (even fast food joints and gas stations - no shocking reds, yellows or blacks!) All the signs are short and, though it makes it hard to find places, everything is pushed back into the trees and shrubs. Everything is overgrown with twisted trunks growing up and around and Spanish moss dripping from every tree.
I like swampy spanish moss type places. =]
