Default South Florida Anyone...?

Any members from South Florida?
Anyone know where I can find out about some historical sites to hunt?
I'm having trouble finding anything online, maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.
I figure something historical has to have happened down here...

Any info would help.

Thanks,
Cash

South Florida should be full of old spanish sites I would think. Spanish Gold, Spanish Silver, gotta be something down there. Speak to some of the old timers. They can point you in the right direction.

Hey Cash, We were in WPB a couple of years ago visiting our daughter and I forgot to bring my sand scoop , anyway I got online and did a search for some clubs to find out if they knew any local md stores to get one. I can't remember which one I called there were several in the area, but the guy I spoke to was very friendly and even invited me to their club meeting and also told me a good place to buy a scoop. I would find a club local to you and consider joining, alot of local knowledge at your fingertips.
