Lou... 3,118 Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 So that's why that annoying median is there.Every time I come down at 45/50 mph and have to slow down where it jogs over, I ask myself why is that there? Now I know. I wish they would get rid of it and just put a single line there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 I'm loving these pics. I was never at the Fort in the 80's...my only visit prior to 2007 was for Christmas in 1977. But I love seeing the history. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fladogfan aka Gretchen 259 Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Does anyone remember this check point just outside the Fort.I do! It was there until the year of the hurricanes.This checkpoint was severely damaged in 2004 with the help of Charlie and the girls, Frances and Jeanne. What was left was removed soon after. EEK gotta agree with Lou, would be nice if the road was restriped. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
