Traveling In Time

With so many vacationers heading down to Florida during this time of year, we at Southwest Florida Dream Builders wondered “What was traveling to Florida like in 1922?” Well, look no further, folks! This article follows the Cook family as they travel from New Harmony, Indiana to Sanford, Florida. Their journey took 18 days and was wrought with difficulties that the modern vacationer would be surprised to hear of! From hitching their family vehicle to another just to get up mountain roads, to camping in old school yards, the trip was a hard one. When the family finally completed the trip, they wrote “It would be impossible to describe either the beauty” of the land or their feelings toward it “Somehow we all felt like we had gotten home.”
