Spanish moss--they used to stuff mattresses with this stuff.
That's where "don't let the bed bugs bite" came from
Cyprus Tree in the Marsh

Fairview-Riverside SP, Mandeville, LA, to Moviepark RV Park, Canton, MS: Before we left Fairview we walked the boardwalk through the marsh area around the river. It was really marshy now because of all the rain and flooding. But it was really pretty with lots of these pretty wildflowers blooming. They looked like iris, but I’m not sure what they were. We left at 10:15. I started out driving. Went west on Rt. 12 and then hit Rt 55 north. Stopped at some little town in Mississippi and had breakfast and then Mike took over driving. We stopped for fuel before pulling into where we’re staying for the night. Not unhooking at all. We were set up by 3:30. Will relax and watch TV and leave tomorrow for Hayti, MO.
