Putnam Lodge

 We recently stayed at the Putnam Lodge, it is a historic hotel built in 1927 in Dixie County, Florida. Depending on the source it is located in Shamrock, Florida or adjacent Cross City, Florida. It was built in the company town developed around Putnam Lumber Company’s operations in Shamrock. 

 

Red Window

When we stayed at the Proctor Mansion and Inn located in Wrentham, Mass I noticed a bright red window. I was told that was a sign of a safe house for slaves traveling the underground railroad.
