I just returned from a two day trip to Eastern North Carolina, where I did some on-site interviews with historians and archeologists, along with taking lots of photographs about an upcoming article in Army Engineer magazine I'm going to write, concerning the restoration of a portion of Civil War Fort Anderson, adjacent to the historic 18th Century settlement of Brunswick Town. On the way to the site, I passed by a quiet small lake, including an inhabitant with whom I had little desire to "visit". When you wander around in these parts, you definitely have to watch where you go. You never know what's lurking in the weeds.
