As soon as you get much west of the Fl Turnpike everything used to be
swamp and most of the developed areas were drained and filled. What

My father worked on a highway project between DeLand and Daytona in the
'20s. The money was good until it wasn't. We went through the area in
the '60s and he was amazed at what the swamps had become.
