Mission to Cape Canaveral '99
South Carolina Photos

These are pictures from my visit to South Carolina, where I attended the wedding reception of Dr Kevin Ford (an old friend from college) and Dr Denka Kuzarova. Both are Math professors at University of South Carolina (USC). (I've omitted the actual reception photos from the public web display.)

(1536x1024 565K) (500x334 26K)	The South Carolina state capitol building - note the Confederate Flag flying below the US and state flags. That remains a controversial subject to today. This is where the US Civil War started, with South Carolina being the first state to secede and that decision being made here.
(1536x1024 788K) (500x334 43K)	The marker for the location of the original state house, which was burned down during the Civil War.
(1536x1024 595K) (500x334 27K)	University of South Carolina
(1536x1024 781K) (500x334 44K)	University of South Carolina, LeConte College building (where Kevin and Denka's offices are)
(1536x1024 520K) (500x334 23K)	Visitor Center at the Congaree Swamp National Monument, southeast of Columbia. Note the "Mosquito Meter" has settings from "All Clear" to "War Zone". :-)

(1536x1024 832K) (500x334 58K)	A turtle sits on a branch at Weston Lake, which is full of turtles.
(1536x1024 1155K) (500x334 52K)	Weston Lake - full of turtles.
(1536x1024 860K) (500x334 54K)	Along the Weston Lake Loop Trail - Cypress trees make upward-pointing spires like stalagmites from their roots to help them breathe when water levels are higher.
(1536x1024 770K) (500x334 46K)	The forest and the swamp.
(1536x1024 810K) (500x334 51K)	The forest and the swamp.
