Experiencing South Carolina's First National Park: Part II
In November, 2003 President George W. Bush signed legislation which officially designated 22,000 acres of old-growth flood plain forest about 30 minutes outside of Columbia, SC as the nations newest national park. Congaree National Park (formerly named Congaree Swamp National Monument) is South Carolina's first national park and it is the 57th area to be designated as a national park nationwide. One late afternoon in May I had the chance to experience this national treasure and in this article which is Part II of a series, I record my experiences during my first short hike in this wild and scenic national park.

Often, Native American Indians came into direct conflict with the English settlers, resulting in displacement of the entire tribe. The Tuscarora War from 1711 - 1713 played an important part in shaping the history of North Carolina and changed the destination of the Tuscarora tribe forever.

On the Remnants of Hurricanes
As I write this article, the remnants of Hurricane Frances are effecting our weather here in the Carolinas. The negative effects of hurricanes are what we usually hear about in today's media. Althought they do not often make the news there can be positive effects from hurricanes as well. In this article I explore some of my own feelings about these formidable yet impressive storm systems.
