Between Tampa And Gainesville Is An Archaeological Park With Native American History, Fishing, And Trails

Florida's Gulf Coast is a prime, year-round vacation escape, but its tourism hotspots tend to center on its prominent Gulf-side beaches. Inland from the Gulf, however, sits a worthy collection of outdoor attractions preserving Florida's natural, cultural, and historical treasures without any beaches involved. A superb Florida hidden gem for history and nature lovers alike is the small but extraordinary Crystal River Archaeological State Park. With the word "archaeological" in its name, you can probably guess that this park is a bit more history-minded than most Florida state parks. At the same time, this park is far from a stuffy history lecture, and you'll find top-tier inland water recreation along with its historic treasures.

Born 80 Years Ago Today in Florida, the “Cosmic Cowboy” Who Pioneered Country-Rock and Toured With Emmylou Harris

On this day (November 5) in 1946, Ingram Cecil Connor III was born in Winter Haven, Florida. However, you may better recognize him as Gram Parsons, the visionary artist whose intergalactic blend of country, rock, R&B, soul and folk music laid the foundation for what we now know as country-rock. A member of the Byrds and co-founder of The Flying Burrito Brothers before embarking on a solo career, Parsons’s remarkable musical run was cut tragically short when the 26-year-old singer-songwriter died of an accidental overdose on September 19, 1973.
