In 1916, the Palm Beach Post newspaper encouraged locals to welcome a 500-car caravan that was to start in Cincinnati in October and was to drive along the Dixie Highway to Miami.
Old Dixie Highway dead ends at the south bank of the C-17 Canal/ Earman River. There was once a bridge there, but it burned in 1933.
The article then has a helpful detailed driving tour of the Dixie through the whole county.
So, If You Want drive the Old Road, There You Go. --RooadDog
RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
