I love this series! One observation: I think the plants outside Port Discover are called Fountain Grass, not Foxtails. Fountain grass is fast becoming an invasive nuisance species because of its popularity in landscaping; when the plant reproduces in areas where it is not native, it takes over and chokes out native flora.
