    Very enjoyable. Glad the Dismal Swamp was distinctly "undismal."

      One of the best parts of our loop so far!

    Thank you for another interesting positive and enjoyable video. We cut, dry and burn peat from our peat bog which has been drained. We call it turf. We always have the stove burning for cooking and heating our domestic water. In winter we light a second stove to heat the radiators. The fires never go out unless we forget to close dampers. A bog is a carbon sink, harvesting and burning it releases a lot of carbon and our turfcutting will eventually be banned.

      I have a dear Irish friend who swears by a peat fire in a cast iron stove in the winter. I have never experienced it but look forward to it someday.

    Great video. Glad you had an easy time in the swamp. Norfilk seems like a good place to lay over a couple of days and the history is great for the kids. An education for everyone.
