The Estuary http://t.co/pnjheh1qvu James Tanner (@Genealogysstar) February 25, 2013 On the Florida Barrier Islands, the inlets and bays are mostly all salt water. By definition they are estuaries where they originate in a river. This is a small inlet...

Endless Cliffs http://t.co/0Dcy4MUa James Tanner (@Genealogysstar) February 18, 2013 Rock climbers are attracted by challenging cliffs. In the Grand Canyon, there are endless and totally inaccessible opportunities to climb. Usually however, those hiking...
