Last day near Kissimmee, Florida so after several days of rest...
I'm ready to start exploring again.
Historic Downtown...
Lakefront park is very beautiful scenic Park on Lake Tohopakaliga.
The Monument of States in Kissimmee’s Lakefront Park dates back to WWII when, in the aftermath of Pearl Harbor, a local doctor procured local rocks and fossils from each of the then 48 US states. Assembled into a tower with each rock labeled according to its origin, the monument was designed to demonstrate national unity.
That sense of unity is certainly conveyed by the fact that the monument – now in the National Register of Historic Places – was assembled entirely by volunteers. You can see their names etched into the sidewalk alongside it.
Then it was finally eating something that isn't fast food or microwaved...
Another great day in the neighborhood!
