To my mind, they are moving too fast and missing so much. But then I remind myself that the national park belongs to all of us and the runners are doing what they enjoy (presumably).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13126827057034325406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2206065553094247343.post-9653304659128575112012-03-02T08:03:52.173-05:002012-03-02T08:03:52.173-05:00Hello Sandie.

Funny you mention dinosaurs because I frequently say this very thing to Ellen, that is, "I expect to see dinosaurs around every bend in the boardwalk".Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13126827057034325406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2206065553094247343.post-63292429613409036222012-03-02T08:01:58.710-05:002012-03-02T08:01:58.710-05:00Hi Judy.

I do think you would enjoy Congaree, its a wonderful national park. <br /><br />I have a great desire to visit Okefenokee, we have only ever driven through the area. If I remember correctly, there is a population of the Red-cockaded Woodpeckers in the vicinity too which is another reason to take a look around.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13126827057034325406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2206065553094247343.post-76786072336245120182012-03-02T07:57:14.485-05:002012-03-02T07:57:14.485-05:00Jerry and Suzy, the bald cypress is a deciduous co...Jerry and Suzy, the bald cypress is a deciduous conifer; meaning that it bears cones, but drops it needles during the winter season. Therefore, it is “bald” during the winter months.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13126827057034325406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2206065553094247343.post-47005335423149058302012-02-28T14:37:58.298-05:002012-02-28T14:37:58.298-05:00I can picture myself right there!! : )I can picture myself right there!! : )happyonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14186179870233267082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2206065553094247343.post-91241733861921603032012-02-28T09:56:52.376-05:002012-02-28T09:56:52.376-05:00Makes me think of dinosaurs wandering through the ...Makes me think of dinosaurs wandering through the swamp land.

I love the way the turn in the boardwalk teasingly conceals what is beyond, assuring that the viewer MUST proceed to see what is around the next turn!Jerry and Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01381487159402842587noreply@blogger.com
