Episode 107
An innocent mistake or a devious plot to sell 18,000 acres of conservation land from under the nose of Florida residents without anyone noticing? You be the judge.
Our guest this week is Florida author Rick Kilby whose latest book, "Florida's Healing Waters: Gilded Age Mineral Springs, Seaside Resorts and Health Spas," details an era from the state's history where wealthy northerners would visit seeking the restorative powers of our springs.
"Welcome to Florida," as always, is presented by Visit Sarasota where 99 Bottles Tap Room and Bottle Shop serves real deal New York bagels - from NYC - every Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning!
