Art in the Everglades

A message from Art Goldsmith, who took a break from balancing the MFNC books...

Hi All:

We extended our field trip reach...

We had an amazing turnout for this trip, about 20 people in canoes, led by a NPS Volunteer named DW, really.

Your intrepid exec members Suzanne and Art sacrificed body and limb to challenge the wilds of the Everglades to get these photos.

Hope you enjoy, and of course, since the world IS our region, I expect you all know the various living things in the photos. There are at least 3 endangered species in these photos. Prizes to those who know which 3.
