Madira Bickel Mound State Archaeological Site is Florida’s first state archaeological site, protected since 1948. While this park is small, it is home to thousands of years of history. Visitors can see a piece of the living history by visiting the park’s main attraction, the Native American mound. This 20-foot tall mound is comprised of sand, fossils, and other debris left behind by the tribe that lived in the area.
The walkway winds under towering Spanish moss trees and sable palms leading to the base of a set of stairs at the bottom of the mound. Visitors can then walk up the stairs to the top of the mound to view it in all its ancient glory

Palmetto Bay, Florida - Deering Estate (2019)
Charles Deering Estate (also known as Deering Estate at Cutler) was the Florida home of Charles Deering until 1927 when he died at the estate.
Deering lived on the 444 acres (1.80 km2) property for five years, from 1922 to 1927. The property consists of a three-story wooden house built in 1900, known as the Richmond Cottage, and a three-story stone mansion. Other buildings were also built on the property to serve as auxiliary buildings to the estate. Charles Deering Estate is located in the Cutler neighborhood of Palmetto Bay, Florida.
The grounds include what is thought to be the largest virgin coastal tropical hardwood hammock in the continental United States. The estate was acquired by the state of Florida in 1985.
The house and grounds were featured several times in the 1980s TV series Miami Vice and it was the starting line for The Amazing Race All-Stars in 2007.

On The Historical Trail
This video was filmed for Austin's historical marker contest from Historical Geocaching. Recently, I took a trip up Palmetto and Bradenton, Florida. Two of the places where we geocached were historical sites, which included historical markers. I made a video of myself reading the markers, which is what was required for the contest. Hope you enjoy! (There are no geocaches included in this video.)

Oral History Video: Allan Horton on Palma Sola and Snead Island
Allan Horton was born in Palma Sola in Manatee County, Florida, and later moved to Sarasota. Throughout his life, he has always had boats and even as a child helped repair and build boats. Allan has worked as a journalist, cowboy, merchant seaman, legislative aid, and was enlisted in the Army, among other occupations. He wrote for the Sarasota Herald-Tribune for 24 years, and fought for Sarasota to adopt environmental protection standards before allowing the phosphate mining industry in Polk County to expand here. He also wrote editorials opposing the use of entanglement nets, and briefly wrote a Waterlines column for the Pelican. Allan's father was the engineer of record for the original design of the Sunshine Skyway bridge; when a freighter collided with the bridge, Allan was there to report on it. He continues to sail, and volunteers for the maritime history program at Historic Spanish point, where he builds and interprets boats from the pioneer period. You can read the full-length transcript of this interview, conducted by New College of Florida student Puneet Sandhu, by visiting the Sarasota County Water Atlas,

MYAKKA RIVER STATE PARK & CAMPGROUND SARASOTA RV TRIP
Myakka River State Park and Campground near Sarasota Florida.
A special moment, frozen in time, in a special place, The canopy suspension bridge: you can venture across the “canopy trail,” a high bridge to nowhere with a tower that takes you above the trees for an amazing view of the surrounding wilderness, a dense forest pockmarked with wetlands and small meadows.
.With all of its activities, Myakka River State Park makes a great base for extended camping stays, and demand is high for this popular park.
A new campground, Palmetto Ridge, was opened during the 2011-12 winter season at Myakka River State Park, adding 42 campsites with gravel pads and full hookups, obviously geared to RVs. Also has 10 pull-through sites for campers with big rigs.
The two older campgrounds – Big Flats (sites 1-26) and Old Prairie (sites 27-48) – are more rustic and have been modified somewhat to provide a little more space between sites, but none of the older sites have sewer hookups, only water and electric, making them tent-friendly. (There are dump stations and restrooms at each campground.)
When the park’s campgrounds were originally constructed back in the 1960s, little thought was given to the large RV’s we see today, so the older sites are well-shaded within oak hammocks, ideal for the more compact requirements of tent campers.
Of the two older campgrounds, Big Flats is the better choice for tents and tent-campers. It is the shadiest campground, and there is more space between sites. Another advantage to Big Flats — it’s closer to the Myakka Outpost concession.
Of the two campgrounds at the southern end of the park, Old Prairie has more Old Florida charm and benefits from being located in a more shady, mature forest than the newer Palmetto Ridge.
There also five palm-log cabins available for overnight rentals (minimum two nights on weekends). The cabins were built in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps, a Depression-era work project that is largely responsible for the establishment of the Florida State Parks system.
Other things to do at Myakka River State Park
Other activities include picnicking, fishing, equestrian facilities and trails, and airboat rides are offered at the park concession, the Myakka Outpost, which is at the foot of Upper Myakka Lake, just off the main park road.
Airboat rides: These are large tour boats, not the noisy, four-person craft you see skidding across the Everglades. And if you fear the noise will keep you away, no worries. It’s quiet enough for the guide to talk through the onboard sound system. The airboat takes you out onto Upper Myakka Lake, where you observe alligators, birds, fish and the wild pigs on the far shore.
Tram Safari (Available only from Dec. 16-May 31 only): Land-based tour of the park and back country with guides who explain the history of the land and its wildlife.
Canoe and kayak rentals: Explore 14 miles of lakes and rivers within the park.
Bike rentals: Rent your bikes on site at the Myakka Outpost.
Things to do nearby: there’s plenty to explore, farms, ranches and dairies, many of them handed down through families from early settlers of the “Old Myakka Valley.”
Crowley Museum and Nature Center: Here’s a little corner of the world worth visiting because there’s a lot going on. This historic homestead features pioneer cabins, a school house, blacksmith shop and more.
Ringling Estate and Museum: Sarasota is “America’s Circus City,” home of the renowned Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus. John Ringling’s estate is now the grounds for the Circus Museum, which houses circus memorabilia dating back more than a century. One of the main attractions is a miniature replica of the 1919-1938 circus. But that’s not all! There’s a museum of art, a 1798 European performing arts theater that was brought here from Italy and restored, a lovely 27,000 square-foot garden, and the Venetian style mansion where John Ringling lived from 1924 until his death in 1936. ringling.org
Historic Spanish Point: This 30-acre park has a 5,000-year history, as evidenced by a unique shell midden built through the centuries by native Americans who cast their discarded shells in a pile. The heart of the midden is visible through a glass wall built to protect it from weathering, and archaeological objects exposed to view include ancient pottery and tools. This tract on Little Sarasota Bay was also home to Mrs. Potter Palmer of the prominent pioneer family that once owned much of Sarasota County. Many of the historic buildings and gardens can be attributed to her era.
