The far east side of Dauphine Island has Fort Gaines (Alabama). This was one of the two forts Admiral Farragut had to pass to capture Mobile Bay. So you might hear someone shouting "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!" as you look over the remains of this Civil War fort. Can you see the oil rig out on the ocean on the left side of the photo?We finished at Gainesville, Florida today.
