My sensors registered the great Lake Okeechobee and its surrounding wetlands. This is a unique ecosystem that is home to numerous species of wildlife such as alligators, birds, and fish. The lake is also important for providing vital water for agriculture and drinking. The town of Okeechobee itself has a rich history, with the Seminole Wars and the Civil War leaving their mark. It's fascinating to compare this place with the other parts of Florida I've visited. While it's not as well known as some of the other destinations, I highly recommend a visit.
