Pigeon Key from the Seven Mile Bridge, Florida Keys

  • Pixel Wrangler said:
    A stunning photo! -- made me 'wanna drive out there. Then, I read (with apologies to Paul Harvey) 'The Rest of the Story' ;) Stormy history of Florida's Pigeon Key Tours of the isolated island include an overview of the 1935 hurricane that turned Pigeon Key into a ghost town and killed 423 people, many of them WWI vets.  
  • Florida Memory said:
    Pixel Wrangler Tragically, Pigeon Key sat right in the path of one of the strongest hurricanes in recorded history. Here is an aerial shot of the rescue train that failed to reach the vets on Labor Day 1935: www.floridamemory.com/items/show/149572.

    Florida Memory Thanks for that photo. What a sad, sad story. I didn't know about the huge loss-of-life and intensity of that hurricane.

    Following John Glenn's successful flight aboard Friendship 7, JFK came to Cape Canaveral on Friday February 23, 1962 and presented NASA Distinguished Service Medals to both Glenn and Dr. Robert Gilruth. Glenn and his family then went to Key West for the weekend only to return to Palm Beach on Monday and fly with the president back to Washington where he addressed a joint session of Congress. This is either his arrival or departure that weekend.
