Food and Travel Nation with Elizabeth Dougherty
DESTINATION UNKNOWN FLORIDA’S QUIRKY STONEHENGE
The TRUTH about Food and Travel
Original Broadcast Date:  1/13/2024

Elizabeth takes us to one of the southernmost points on the Florida peninsula.  A jilted lover who was left at the alter by his 16 year-old fiancé, used a hand-made hammer and chisel and carved out what’s been described as Florida’s Stonehenge as a tribute to his lost love.

If you think the story is creepy, wait until you hear about the very odd stone monuments he created to memorialize his lost love, and the superhuman effort used to transport them.

Billy Idol’s song “Sweet Sixteen” was inspired by the story of Edward Leedskalnin.

Yeah, sad and lonely and blue
Yeah, gettin’ over you
How, how do you think it feels
Yeah, to get up in the morning, get over you
Up in the morning, get over you
Wipe away the tears, get over you, get over, get over?
