Re: [RC] hills in Florida? - Lynn Kinsky

Title: Re: [RC] hills in Florida?
No offense Jody, beter check your references again. Swamps are in the south end of the state. The land features of FL are very subtle.

Subtle is a good word <g>.  I'm from Florida, and flat is also a good word.  This is a description of the lumpy part of the state:

In 1921, Edward W. Bok was spending the winter months in the  residential mountain lake community located adjacent to the highest  hill of Florida's Lake Wales Ridge, 298 feet above sea level.  He enjoyed taking evening walks to the top of "Iron Mountain," among  the virgin pines and sandhill scrub, to enjoy Florida's dramatic  sunsets and bird life. The idea came to him to preserve this  hilltop and create a bird sanctuary - a place of beauty, serenity  and peace.
