Adjacent to Ft Henry on Cape Henry is First Landing State Park

As a thread stealing statement, I’ll add that First Landing State Park is the northern most habitat of the bromeliad Tillandsia usneoides commonly known as Spanish Moss. It is perhaps the most successful plant species on earth. The habitat extends all the way from Virginia First Landing State Park continuously to southern Argentina. It was not able to cross the gap of the Chesapeake bay to the Delmarva peninsula.
