Welcome back to another riveting episode of "Florida: Real and Imagined" with your favorite radio duo, Robin and The Giant! Today, we're diving deep into the rich history of one of Florida's most iconic landmarks – the Venetian Pool in Coral Gables. But hold onto your swim caps, because we're also unraveling the fascinating tales of Florida's limestone legacy and the remnants of strip mining that dot the landscape.

Join us as we take a refreshing plunge into the crystalline waters of the Venetian Pool, tracing its origins back to the early 1900s when it emerged from a limestone quarry. Discover the captivating story of how this former quarry evolved into a breathtaking oasis, complete with picturesque caves and lush landscaping, earning its rightful place on the National Register of Historic Places.

As we explore the depths of the Venetian Pool, we'll also uncover the parallel narrative of Florida's mining history. From the bustling boomtown of Dunnellon to the limestone quarries of Ocala, we'll paint a vivid picture of the laborious efforts that shaped the Sunshine State's landscape. Learn how the extraction of phosphate and limestone left behind intriguing limerock pits, serving as enduring monuments to Florida's industrial past.

But that's not all – did you know that the Venetian Pool boasts a unique filtration system, relying on natural processes to replenish its waters? We'll delve into the eco-friendly practices that keep this aquatic wonderland pristine and inviting for visitors from near and far.

So, grab your snorkel gear and join us on a journey through time and terrain, as we uncover the hidden treasures of the Venetian Pool and Florida's storied past. Tune in to "Florida: Real and Imagined" for a refreshing blend of history, exploration, and a splash of sunshine!
