in a swamp near Yeehaw JunctionThat's all there is near Yeehaw Junction, which itself is essentially an old restaurant/motel called the Desert Inn (which is out of commission since a truck ran into it in 2019), and a BP gas station/convenience store that can handle trucks.

Warning to all:
Stay out of Yeehaw Junction I see a made-for-TV movie in the offing: The Macon County Yeehaw Junction Line.

He still waits for me, constant, on the sly
He wants to turn me in to the F.B.I.
Me, I romp and stomp, thankful as I romp
Without freedom of speech I might be in the Swamp

A trailer in a wooded area is not exactly hiding in the swamp.

"Yeehaw Junction, which itself is essentially an old restaurant/motel called the Desert Inn." Setting aside the curious name for a restaurant in a swamp, how many Michelin stars does the Desert Inn have?

Exactly. I’d be afraid to hide in a legitimate swamp in Florida. I’d be afraid of being eaten by a gator, or a python.

You can evade gators and pythons. The mosquitoes on the other hand, will make you pray a gator comes for you.

Meth. It’s so plentiful in the area. The poor father (and whatever family is around).

I was in the swamp/woods near Yeehaw Junction about a month ago on a 1o mile hike. Before dawn and in the fog. It was eerie to say the least. Fit the definition of the middle of nowhere. A local hotel was called, the Heartbreak Hotel. The old Yeehaw Junction bar has fallen apart, which is kinda sad.

Adults *might* be able to evade a gator. Little kids, not so much. DEET works on mosquitoes. I don’t even want to think about pythons.

Sounds very interesting. Definitely a hike to remember. Got to keep your eyes open for gators!
