From: Florida State Parks .org "In the 1920s, Rainbow Springs was a favorite spot for tourists and locals. As the attraction grew, the river was dredged for glass bottom boat tours; and waterfalls were built on piles of phosphate tailings. A zoo, rodeo, gift shops and a monorail with leaf-shaped gondolas were added. In the mid-1970s, when larger theme parks lured the tourists away, Rainbow Springs was closed. In the mid-1990s, it reopened as a state park. In 1972, the U.S. Department of the Interior designated Rainbow River as a National Natural Landmark. It is also an aquatic preserve and an Outstanding Florida Water."

Pixel Wrangler Thanks Pixel! Listen to glass bottom boat captain Skipper Locket perform part of his Rainbow Springs chant at the Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center (White Springs, FL) in 1956: floridamemory.com/audio/occupational.php#07.

Florida Memory That two-minute clip is fantastic! I don't think anyone could listen to it without having a smile on their face! ;)

Accompanying note: "M. E. Keath, a steeplejack from Lake Alfred, spent most of this morning atop the flagpole on the Capitol dome repainting and making repairs. Keath, who is 62, has been painting the pole regularly over the years. Total height of the pole from the ground is 120 feet."

Cool to see this image as I made a calotype of the scenery only a couple of years ago in Maridalen. It is very close to Maridalen Lake. Do you agree it is the same tree? Link to my Flickr published salt print: flic.kr/p/dNJKfu
