The 'River of Grass'

Well...This post will mostly serve to warn our readers of a torrent of new pictures that are burgeoning on being posted to the blog. This shot is of us in the Everglades National Park. We found this place to be very still and peaceful - except for the alligators at least...It is amazing that you can find so much wildlife so close to the metropolis of Miami (it is only about an hour away). The Everglades were first made popular as a 'River of Grass' in Marjory Douglas's epic poem. I think that the word surreal is the best way to describe it. We are also adding a photo album about the Everglades in the Adventures tab. Hope you enjoy!

(P.S. Our camera case was almost eaten by a hungry alligator! - more on that later...)
