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.

Florida resort that hosts PGA Tour event is being sold

With news Thursday that Colonial Country Club in Texas is likely to lose its PGA Tour event and Kapalua having been dropped from the competition schedule this year, it’s a relief to see that another longtime Tour staple is still going strong. And it soon will have new ownership. Salamander Collection acquired Innisbrook Resort in 2007, and now that hospitality company is selling the resort to Concert Golf Partners. The Central Florida-based Concert Golf Partners has expanded rapidly in recent years to own and operate more than 40 courses coast-to-coast, and Innisbrook will be its 10th property in the Sunshine State. The reported sale price approaches $20 million. Innisbrook Resort in Palm Harbor, Florida, has hosted the PGA Tour since 2000. What began as the Tampa Bay Classic is now the Valspar Championship, played each year on Innisbrook’s Copperhead Course. Even before the PGA Tour began hosting an official event there, the resort was home for a decade to the JCPenney Classic, which included mixed teams of Tour players with LPGA players. Valspar has signed on as sponsor of the Tour event at Innisbrook through 2030. This article originally appeared on Golfweek: Florida resort that hosts PGA Tour event is

Exhibits, a mural festival and more arts events abound in Tampa Bay this month

The Dalí Museum regularly presents exhibitions that explore the way Salvador Dalí fits into the scope of art history by displaying his work alongside the most influential artists in the world. This time, Dalí’s art is being shown in context with his European predecessors El Greco, Diego Velázquez, Luis Meléndez and Francisco Goya. Spanning nearly five centuries, “Dalí: Disruption + Devotion” was co-organized with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. It aims to show these artists’ influences on Dalí and how he “mined the whole history of art to fashion himself into its latest heir,” according to a press release.
