We had two opportunities; we could draw on the side with nothing on it, turn the thing over and there's this set of designs of, say, the electric circuitry of the school of engineering, and you could draw in amongst all this. So, architecture and cities, it's all there.

We believe that the recreational activities are more than enough to keep folks busy and in tune with eco-tourism. When you get back to your cabin, it really feels like a vacation getaway. In the evening, just sitting on the porch and listening to the sounds is wonderful.

We are trying to keep the park as a passive-use facility. We picked those activities because we want as low an impact as possible.

We made a good start toward preserving recreational areas like the Chattahoochee River.
