Speaking of south Florida. I read this book 3 or 4 years ago. Its based on the fact that mail was delivered by postmen walking along the beach from Palm Beach to Lake Worth Florida between 1885 and 1892.

 

I appreciate you sharing that one. Will have to read that one. 

it's amazing how much some of the simplest things today required so much back then, and how much times have changed. 

I am lucky if the postal  carrier even actually leaves my packages anymore. 

Half the time they will stack them up for a few days before they deliver them. Which would be a LOT more understandable if they were having to walk along the beach.

It's spelled 'highfalutin', Addy. Not exactly an everyday word, admittedly, but 'high fluting' sounds like a fun activity, especially this one time... at band camp....

Nothing wrong with a little countryisms. 

That there's my neck O' the woods.  

I knew what you meant, but could help when I saw flute as several images came to mind.
