My sisters and I took a Caribbean cruise in October of 1998. We had a great time and especially enjoyed an air boat excursion in the Everglades before we went to the airport.

Greetings from Everglades National Park
I ran my first ever half marathon in Everglades National Park. It was an amazing experience to run through the poetically termed River of Grass while the sun rose. Seeing the wildlife and the vast expanses of unbroken natural beauty is something I will never forget.
