Have you considered that the entire area will be uncomfortably humid and often, hellishly hot that time of year? I hope you're used to feeling like someone has soaked a horse blanket in hot water and then draped it over your head, because that's what it will be like.
Oh, and mosquitoes! Lots and lots of mosquitoes. The good news is, if you're on a diet, the bugs make it easy to lose weight due to blood loss.
I would head north instead. Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin can be very nice in the summer (though maybe not all that much less humid), and you really can only find decent weather there in the summer anyway. Save the Upper South for winter.
Unfortunate I am unable to travel during the school year due to our work schedules. It is my goal to have our daughters see all 50 states before they graduate from high school.
Believe me, I am not a huge fan of southern summer temps/humidity. We were in disney fort wilderness last August. Yikes!!!
This trip will be a little more relaxed. Disney was go, go , go all day long. I can tell you I never slept so good though. Wore out!
Thanks for the gentle words of encouragement!!!
