18. 



Uses of natural area: 



The natural area has been protected by the owner as a 

 nature preserve for some time. The southern border of the 

 site is marked by a large wooden sign proclaiming "Cypress 

 Park." A gated narrow road leads into the site from the 

 southern border and deadends at the edge of the cypress 

 stand. From this point a foot trail leads further into the 

 stand and makes a loop, connecting back to the starting point. 

 The site is apparently used from time to time for nature walks 

 by school groups and other groups . In fact , the site achieved 

 a degree of notoriety when a wedding ceremony was performed a 

 few years ago under the cypress. It is obvious that the site 

 is protected and maintained by the owner in recognition of 

 its natural values.
