The Three W's

Prior to the last century, In a southem gradual sheet flow 'Three W’s” hydrologically timed and tuned It's energy flow and, it encompassed the Kissimmee River, commencIng south of Orlando, down through Lake Okeechobee. And, still southerly It left the lake rim and became a "River of Grass" that southeasterly extended to Miami's Coastal Ridge and Biscayne Bay --and southwesterly, flowed Into the Big Cypress Basin, to nurture It's uniquely subtropical wildlife and wild plant communities, It's Big Cypress National Preserve and, It's Fakahatchee (Slough) State Park. A big Cypress Everglades.

Under what Is now "Alligator Alley" (1-75 toll road) then, under "Tamiami Trail” (US 41), this watery 'Three W’s" eventually ran through Native Seminole and MIccosukee Indian “hammocks” and through mangrove forests to become brackish sea water. Here In the Everglades National Park and Florida Bay --with coastal communities of plants and anintals, "Three W's" would continue to flourish. Furthermore, by this time It had been written In stories, sung in songs, lived In life histories, painted, photographed and formed Into a wonderful metaphor for health --a healthy ecology in Big Cypress Everglades.
