Actually I don't remember any dirt roads at all, just shiny wall-to-wall gated golf-course communities and that wonderful beach. And a rich broker-financial planner who'd been prosecuted for fraud and as I recall sent up up up the river. No slap on the wrist for him. He must have lost money/stolen from the Port Royal crowd. I went and looked at his "treasures" that were being auctioned off to help pay his debts and they were like Saddam's.....cheesy apcray!

Oh yes, I'd looked at a house for sale that had a bathroom jacuzzi tub with three mink-covered steps leading up to it....LOL. I guess some mafia types lived down there at the time, and reputedly "kept to themselves and kept the town safe."

I'm trying to remember why I want to move back.

LOL...well, believe me, there were once dirt roads. And, in fact, once upon a time, the whole town was just a fishing village. And that's it. :)
