State of Florida Ornament
by Old World Christmas

An Old World Christmas glass ornament. When you think of the State of Florida, located in the southern most continental United States, you see pristine beaches, fun loving sun tanned people, a lively music scene in Miami, an infusion of Cuban music and culture, and of course... alligators! But there is so much more that Florida has to offer, so how about these few fun facts: The first ATM machine was installed in Miami; Pharmacist Benjamin Green invented the first suntan lotion in 1944; Gatorade was developed and named after the University of Florida Gators; and Cape Canaveral is America's launch pad for space flights! A terrific ornament for a family tree, it makes a great gift to commemorate a vacation to Florida!
