Map Location

MyMaps from Google is a virtually easy and simple tool to use when trying to generate your own personal map. While using the map system, I was surprised that my study are was not previously marked on the map although it did have a sign on site. So, using the system I was able to pinpoint the Horne Wetlands park location with the orange marker so that you can see where the park is located in comparison to other locations on the map and the Edisto Memorial Gardens.
