Cypress Trees Have Knees-
Take a look at these cypress knees. Aren't they neat? We found these in a swamp in the Honey Island Swamp. There are many theories about what they are for. They most certainly provide support and structure for the tree because the soil in the swamp is so wet and malleable. Some scientists think they act as little snorkels, providing oxygen for the tree. The knees are hollow at the tip, and often snakes can live in them.
I'm off to New Orleans today. It's general election day! How exciting. I can't wait to see all of you on Thursday to discuss the results, your studies and my trip!
Maybe I'll see the Park View ghost after all. Do you think he or she is a Democrat or Republican?

dear Ms.Farber,
We miss you a lot. I love going on the computer and seeing you and talking and asking questions.I have another question for you.What has been the hottest and coldest temperature there? Its been really cold here. It snowed about 6 inches here. It seemed a lot of snow because a lot of people were wearing snow pants and winter coats and all of that stuff. Miss you much.
Love,
Mackenzie
