State Parks, Historic Sites, and Museums need your help.

Throughout the country, state parks, historic sites, homes, buildings, museums, and similar institutions are struggling to continue operating. Because of general financial problems, many of these institutions are operating on a reduced schedule or in danger of closing. Some are being forced to sell off artifacts and property. Many will not weather these hard times without your help.

Places Earth urges everyone to support these vital and important public resources any way you can. Please donate your treasure, time, and talent. Write to your governor and other elected officials telling them to find a way to keep state parks open. It will be your loss.

Florida is one of only a few states with a dome-less capitol, although the Old Capitol, now a museum, has a dome.

The Old State Capitol building was restored to about the 1902 appearance and is now a museum, leaving Florida as one of the few states with a domeless capitol building (see also Alaska).

The controversial 2000 Presidential election pivoted on several Florida precincts and "hanging chads." This election is discussed in this exhibit.
