EEEEEE Mail

Swansea, SC

Hey Tish!

I just got back from Congaree (River) National Park in South Carolina. Not to be confused with the Pee Dee, Swanee, Catahootchie and other eeee sounding rivers.

It's one of the only -- and tallest-- swamp forests in the world. We took the short trail, about 2 1/2 miles on a raised boardwalk, and looked at the Loblolly Pines, and the towering Swamp Cypresses, and other incredible flora -- but no fauna except for one little green newt and a grey squirrel. Beautiful and eerie.

Miss you guys.

Betty
