Kissimmee

I arrived at Kissimmee Prairie Preserve State Park yesterday evening. It reminds me of being out west… the remoteness, big open skies with patches of trees scattered about, except instead of aspens and sage brush its palm trees and saw palmetto plants. It is a dark sky site and they have red light only areas and red lights on the buildings to reduce light pollution. I wish every state park did that! It was refreshing to see the night sky in such detail, and you could tell the dark sky rules made a big difference. Here are a few quick first impressions from yesterday. I look forward to exploring the trails and sky over the next couple of days!
