Good Job! I see the bricks were made in your home town.


For those that don't know this road was laid down in 1912. It was one of the first if not the first paved road heading south into Florida.

Here are the rest of the Pix

Brick Road bits and dust.

The car was a mess. Once we got back up to 60-65 most of it blew off. She got a good washing this evening once we got home.

I remember my grandfather taking me on this road as a little boy. When I saw the Flagler County sign I just knew where it was. . . .

Neat that the bricks came from Birmingham. some of our old sidewalks have the exact same bricks. . . .
