Pro of the GS -

1. I have never been there before
2. The firefly synchronization is scheduled to start really soon...so we may have the opportunity to see some really cool things.
3. Lots of great wildlife.


Pros of Acadia:
1. 250 miles closer (500 mile drive vs 750)
2. Cooler - it will be in the 60s-70s in Acadia and in the low 80s in Great Smoky.
3. I know the terrain and know where to shoot.
