Everglades City - Gateway to Ten Thousand Islands
Kayaking, Airboats, Alligators, Florida Everglades
Located near Florida’s southern tip and southeast of Naples, Everglades City is known as the gateway to Ten Thousand Islands. Canoe the mangrove tunnels. Take a fishing and backcountry excursion. Hike through the Big Cypress National Preserve near Everglades City. And try not to miss the Everglades Seafood Festival, a taste of Florida as it used to be. Generally held in February, the festival is as laid-back as a day on the river, yet as lively as a tune on the banjo. It's as real as gators in the Everglades City swamp. It’s a place to snag a seat on a carnival ride, relax with the family and raise a mug of suds to the stars – and, of course, sample sumptuous Everglades City seafood, fresh and firm and perfect.
Big Cypress Oasis Trail Showing The Everglades Wet/Dry Seasons
These scenes were all shot at the same locations 10 months apart. They show the dramatic difference of the water levels during the wet and dry seasons. The scenes that have water were shot in March of 2016 showing that the water is surprisingly low for this time of year although we have started the dry season now.
Visiting Everglades, Wetland in Florida, United States
The Everglades (or Pa-hay-okee) are a natural region of tropical wetlands in the southern portion of the U.S. state of Florida, comprising the southern half of a large watershed. The system begins near Orlando with the Kissimmee River, which discharges into the vast but shallow Lake Okeechobee. Water leaving the lake in the wet season forms a slow-moving river 60 miles (97 km) wide and over 100 miles (160 km) long, flowing southward across a limestone shelf to Florida Bay at the southern end of the state. The Everglades experience a wide range of weather patterns, from frequent flooding in the wet season to drought in the dry season. Writer Marjory Stoneman Douglas popularized the term River of Grass to describe the sawgrass marshes, part of a complex system of interdependent ecosystems that include cypress swamps, the estuarine mangrove forests of the Ten Thousand Islands, tropical hardwood hammocks, pine rockland, and the marine environment of Florida Bay.

Enjoy while we have it, because we are destroying the ecosystem.
Thirty-six federally protected animals live in the park, some of which face grave threats to their survival.
In the United States, the American crocodile's only habitat is within South Florida. They were once overhunted for their hides. They are protected today from hunting but are still threatened by habitat destruction and injury from vehicle collisions when crossing roads to reach waterways. About 2,000 crocodiles live in Florida, and there are roughly 100 nests in the Everglades and Biscayne National Parks. Crocodiles populations in South Florida have increased as has the number of alligators. Crocodiles were reclassified from endangered to threatened in the United States in 2007.
The Real Everglades
The Florida panther is one of the most endangered mammals on earth. About 230 live in the wild, primarily in the Everglades and the Big Cypress Swamp. The biggest threats to the panther include habitat destruction from human development, vehicle collisions, inbreeding due to their limited gene pool, parasites, diseases, and mercury poisoning.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) listed eight Reptiles of Concern, including the Burmese python (Python molurus bivittatus), focusing on them for their large sizes and aggressive natures, allowing licensed hunters to kill any listed animals in protected areas and sell their meat and hides. Burmese pythons, two subspecies of African rock pythons (Python sebae; northern and southern), and yellow anacondas (Eunectes notaeus) were banned from import into the U.S. in 2012. United States Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar announced the inclusion of these reptiles at Everglades National Park. Exotic species control falls under the management of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which has been compiling and disseminating information about invasive species since 1994. Control of invasive species costs $500 million per year, but 1,700,000 acres (6,900 km2) of land in South Florida remains infested

Inscription on Collier County plaque for the Ochopee Post Office:
Ochopee Post Office - Considered to be the smallest post office in the United States, this building was formerly an irrigation pipe shed belonging to the J.T. Gaunt company tomato farm. It was hurriedly pressed into service by the postmaster Sidney Brown after a disastrous night fire in 1953 burned Ochopee's general store and post office. The Present structure has been in continuous use ever since as both a post office and ticket station for Trailways bus lines- and still services residents in a three-county area, including deliveries to Seminole and Miccosukee Indians living in the region. Daily business, often includes requests from tourists and stamp collectors the world over for the famed Ochopee post mark. The property was acquired by the Wooten Family in 1992.
