Another roadside attraction that I recently visited was St Anne’s Shrine.It was built around 1920 by French-speaking Catholics on a lake six miles east of Lake Wales, Florida. The shrine commemorates St. Anne’s miraculous healing of terminally ill cancer-ridden boy after he swam in adjacent St. Anne’s Lake. Most of it was demolished by an unsympathetic Catholic Church in 1950, but some vestige survives today.
