City of Kissimmee

Kissimmee is a city in Osceola County, Florida. It is the county seat of Osceola County. The area was originally named Allendale, after Confederate Major J. H. Allen who operated the first cargo steamboat along the Kissimmee River - the Mary Belle. It was renamed Kissimmee when incorporated as a city in 1883. The name, Kissimmee, came from 'Cacema', a Native American name meaning 'long water'. It’s defined by its proximity to the region’s multitude of amusement parks, including the massive Walt Disney World Resort complex.

Skiing the Rockies

I was quite impressed with Steve’s patience as I initially didn't have a clear vision on my trip other than I wanted to ski in Alberta. His suggestions made it easier for me to make some decisions.I had a very good trip and meeting up with some former ski buddies with good weather and good snow topped it up. I really appreciate the help Steve offered, his prompt replies to my enquires and overall professionalism getting my trip organized.
