I've been there or should say passed through there.

I have stayed at the Wakulla Springs Lodge a few times for diving trips in years past. Old style Florida lodge. The spring is one of the best that I have seen in my travels. Very restful place.?ÿ ?ÿ Beach camping at St. George Island is?ÿ Four ƒ?s.

Florida has all kinds of weird stuff, especially people. ?????ÿ

"This phone booth in Carrabelle, Florida is alleged to be the ƒ??Worldƒ??s Smallest Police Station,ƒ? and who are we to disagree?

Its history belongs to law enforcement through and through. Built in 1963, it was originally a police phone box before apparently performing so well that it was promoted to a full ƒ??station.ƒ? The tiny office has earned a fair amount of fame for its oddity, appearing on several television shows including ƒ??Ripleyƒ??s Believe It or Not!ƒ?

But of course, that amount of fame comes with extra attention from the locals ƒ?? and not all of it positive. The location has been vandalized several times throughout the years, from benign pranks such as the phone being regularly removed to more serious issues like gunfire directed at the booth.?ÿ

In fact, the booth has met with such misfortune that itƒ??s been replaced entirely more than once. But the original has been preserved by the local Chamber Office, where it sits on display. The new booth is more of a museum than a functioning office, if you can believe it, and it displays a thorough exhibit of its history.
