November 29 and December 14, 2008
Next
This ride is to the
Lake Kissimmee State Park - Cow Camp
Lake Kissimmee State Park where we are going to visit the Cow Camp. The
Cow Camp is a replica of an 1870's Florida Cow Camp where cow hunters
would stop with their herd on the way to St. Augustine to sell them.
No one owned the Cow Camps, instead they were there
for all cow hunters to use. They kept them in good repair and left them
like they found them for the next occupants.
The Cow Camp is complete with an 1870's era "Florida
Cracker" who will tell you all about the life at a Cow Camp.
| As we get ready to start our ride Mike and Paula are
busy making last minute preparations. |

Since we are heading South today we head for breakfast
in Kissimmee. |
| Downtown Kissimmee has been modernized from the sleepy
cow town it was in the 50's |
 |
 |
Most of the businesses have been remodeled. |
| Much like Sanford and Mt. Dora most of the buildings
have gotten a face lift. |
