Holy crap Batman!! That is truly remarkable. Next weekend I'll be in residence of my own "intellectual exchange house" with a good buddy exchanging intellectual stuff while waiting for an intellectually challenged whitetail to appear. One can dream though.

I have been to Savannah Dhu a couple of times. The video tells most of the story but it doesn't even closely describe the hunting part of the operation. They have/had their own breeding farm/operation for stocking a 2000 acre high fence area for trophy animals. A 35 plus dog kennel fully stocked with titled pointers/setters and labs with a full time handler and trainer. A gun room where guests walk through a series of stations where they are outfitted with clothing, guns etc for either big game hunting or upland/waterfowl hunting. An artificial trout stream with it's own pump station. The underground parking garage accommodates 45 cars!! The sporting art could fill a museum. BUT there is not a Parker Bros. shotgun in the place so I have decide to not complete a purchase offer
Our little piece of heaven is sandwiched between Savannah Dhu our northern neighbor and the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge our southern neighbor. |

I was in a plantation down here once owned by Nelson Doubleday with a fine gun cabinet. All of the guns looked like Berettas and the new owner probably bought them all at the same time, once he found out how many spaces the cabinet had. Sad. In another story, the guy thought a bunch of coots were ducks

One wonders what the annual expenses are. I once captained a 61' Hatteras and though it wasn't a Broward or a Berger it wasn't a cheep vessel. The owners bill at the end of the year for salaries, dockage, groceries, etc were enough to bankrupt the average man. But this piece of property is fodder for many dreams.

My very limited knowledge of Celtic language says that Dhu is "Dark Water". On a trip to Scotland in the 90's I stumbled across a highland Scotch called "Dallas Dhu". The distillery had closed but still had about 8 years of product laid down,. Needless to say, i had to buy a bottle. Nothing special. No wonder they went out of business.

SAVANNAH DHU also a play on words.
Here is the first verse of Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s 1815 poem, _____________________________________________ KUBLA KAHN Or a Vision in a Dream. A Fragment: In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree: Where Alph, the sacred river, ran Through caverns measureless to man Down to a sunless sea. So twice five miles of fertile ground With walls and towers were girdled round: And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills Where blossom'd many an incense-bearing tree; And here were forests ancient as the hills, Enfolding sunny spots of greenery. ________________________________ All very heady. REC
