While looking through my Picasa files, which I still really don't know how to navigate my way around, I found some pictures of our trip to Cumberland Island. This was a few years ago, while we still lived in Georgia. The kids were so little.
This is a teency glimpse of the Recreation Building ruins.
The Dungeness Recreation Building, which once held an indoor swimming pool, squash court, gymnasium, billiard room and several large guestrooms, has since collapsed from years of neglect.
You can read more about the Carnegies and their life on Cumberland Island here.
Linking up with Friday Fences
Have a great weekend!
i totally understand the picasa album issues ... i can not figure out to use the photos? copy & paste or what? some of them i would love to use again.
ReplyDeletegreat fence shot. have a great weekend. ( :
when you take a picture from the "tray" then click "file" up along the top of your screen. it will allow you to save it where ever you want to. i don't understand the way the albums load to picasa...it's kind of a mess! you can also edit in picnik from picasa, but i've had some issues with that working once in a while.
DeleteYou always find the neatest fences!
ReplyDeletePicasso ?? me either:)
ReplyDeleteLove this shot glad you found it. B
I like how the Recreation Building is just visible over the fence.
ReplyDeleteall is green in your country
ReplyDeleteGreat photo of the fence and the ruins. I'd like to see more of them.
ReplyDeleteA glimpse of what must have been a very huge building to house all that.
ReplyDeleteI like the fence!
I agree about Picasso - not user friendly.
My cousin visited there, and her descriptions and photos were really sad.
ReplyDeletemakes a nice rustic photo (or did).
ReplyDeleteCool wood fence & I 2nd TexWisGirl's comment...
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about navigating thru Picasa, I still don't completely understand it either.
I would imagine lots of ppl would be lost if they're changing the names of the hwys, that borders cruel & unusual punishment! LoL! =)
Nice shot! Kind of funny that the sign seems to have held up so well. Great find.
ReplyDeleteI love going through old photos. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is anice shot from the archives.
How sad, Tanya! But it makes for an interesting photo.
ReplyDeleteYou must have had "Georgia on [My] Your Mind". :-)
ReplyDeleteNot much recreating going on around here, it looks like.
ReplyDeleteThat link provided some interesting stories.
ReplyDeleteHere is another new place for me to visit one day!
Another great old fence! Love the ruins too!
ReplyDeleteNicely weathered one!
ReplyDeleteWe hope to visit Cumberland Island during our winter stay in Brunswick Ga. this year! Nice fence shot!
ReplyDeleteOh would you please lock me into that building ;)
ReplyDeletePlease have you all a good weekend ahead.
(Thank you for your stopping by, much appreciated !)
It may be totally consumed by the vegetation by now.
ReplyDeleteIt looks mysterious in the background.

ReplyDeleteHard to imagine this as being once a full recreation center.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such a nice, warm weather shot!
ReplyDeleteI love the old weathered board fence- nice shot!
ReplyDeleteI find old ruins fascinating.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful. Looking forward to reading about the Carnegies. Isn't this where JFK, Jr. was married? I read I biography that talked a lot about the island. So interesting!
