maybe for senior citizens. but with younger kids, it's fantastic. lots of rock climbing and hikes.
hiking is just a walk that sucks...

While I often agree, hiking is how you get away from crowds and see the coolest stuff.

Everglades turned out to be much cooler than expected.

Biscayne was just a bunch of ocean, so ... :thumbsup:

Yes, that's what I must have been thinking about. And then we may have talked about pooping in all the national parks, which would be something.

my college roommate went to go work for a representative. part of his job was to give tours of the capitol. he got to know the security there pretty well, and so he had no problem accessing the vice president's office when we were there. i took a crap in al gore's private bathroom in his office in the capitol.

If that's Al Gore's private bathroom how are they letting anyone in there or is it more like semi private and his staff can use? How was the flush? And, most importantly...how was the poop and clean-up?
