As we were leaving Tybee Island, we kept our eyes open for Huck-A-Poos. Huck-A-Poos is where John Potter used to hang out for many years. This is the guy who created the CSS Georgia photograph hoax and a man described as a local character.
After all, there is only one place to go into or off Tybee Island, and that is US-80. We have to pass the place at some point. You'd think so, anyway.
Traffic was light at first, but then started getting heavier as we got close to the end of the island. We were going slow enough that Liz was able to see a small Huck-A-Poos sign among some trees. Well, we've come this far so might as well check it out. I turned around and we drove into a grove of trees with several small business and then saw Huck-A-Poos.
It took awhile, but we found a parking space and walked in. They have an outside eating area under huge tarps and we could tell right away, we had found a dive bar. Once inside the small bar, the walls were extremely cluttered, a good sign that you are in a dive bar. And everything was jumbled together. No planning here, just put it up as you get it. No planning ahead.
