I visited the Koreshan Historic Site today which is definitely a Pioneer's Park at this point. Fascinating group with a charismatic leader based on science (now known to be incorrect), arts and education more info here: www.floridastateparks.org/koreshan/. Also special note that this is day 200 of 2013!

BRIGHT EYES - "Pioneer's Park"

how did this happen
how did this happen
such a perfect day and unexplainable new feeling
how did this happen
how did this happen
two contented shapes
entwined under the trees
nothing prepares you
and nothing prepares you
for such an endless dream
to pour itself on you
and the world swelled around us
and the world swelled around us
an there was brilliant light, but we were far more radiant
and it is in this light we are lost
the scent of summer in our hair
and laying on our bed of grass
with pleasure thick and sticking to the air (to the air)
sticking to the air (to the air)
and in this light we are lost
the scent of summer in our hair (in our hair...in our hair)
