Stumped:
The fire had really been cooking on this stump! Here is a closer view,
and here is the stump closer still!.
These explorations were only a prelude to my Florida carnivorous plant
searches. My plan, after the meeting, was to head west to Tallahassee. There I would meet with Jim Miller (who lived in
Tallahassee) and Bob McMorris (who was driving up from the south). These two guys are old school carnivorous plant enthusiasts
who have been exploring the southeastern states for many years. We would spend a few days in Apalachicola National Forest
looking at carnivorous plant sites.
I had been to Apalachicola before, but I was looking forward to revisiting it, especially with these
two experts.
