Sit by the fire (or the beach)
and read of Christmases-past
The first Christmas celebration in Florida is thought to have been the very first in North America! Since then, celebrations have ranged from colonists partying in a fort being pummeled by cannonball, to pioneers feasting on 'possum and bear meat, to Roaring Twenties revelers savoring oranges (and contraband whisky washed up on the beach). Read our Florida Christmas story here.


Art looks at the wild side
Hear environmental writer Bill Belleville discuss how artists and writers have depicted Florida's stunning landscapes, on Jan. 16 at the Ding Darling Wildlife Society in Sanibel. Go here for details.
