This sounds like a lovely place to visit. I love mixing history with my vacations, and I especially enjoy golfing. The club looks beautiful, and absolutely worth a trip down to Myrtle Beach.

That makes me want to jump back in time in order to walk through those doors and see what’s what.

I want to go there, but I only want to go there in the 1940’s. They need to combine time travel with geographic travel. That would be really cool (and basically a nightmare for all our futures).

A great picture. Recalls that in the 1920s everyone was “looking back” with architecture and tourism. the nostalgia thing was big. In Richmond it was English Tudor recalling all the British antecedents that everyone claimed. It was also when Colonial Williamsburg got started, presenting the traveling public with a setting that was not quite real, a sanitized 18th century. Postcards are a great way to see what folks believed in any era!

Howdy Margo
Happy PFF .
That is a really neat card.
I am like everyone else it does seem like a waste of money giving a freebie that cannot be used other than to remember the phone number and address .
My parents still have a stack of these falling out of the address book whenever someone opens it up.
I must volunteer to take them and put them to use
Have a wonderful weekend.
Happy Trails
Hugs
