This image was almost lost. I came across it tonight and I don't think I had posted it before on my blog. This is another photo of the ruins you can find throughout St. John. What is great about these ruins is you can walk right up to them and through them and sit among them thinking about the era that has long gone. Almost all the ruins on St. John are from the Sugar Plantation era where European colonist settled on the islands to try their hand at the sugar industry. When slavery was abolished the industry became unsupportable financially and this era on St. John came to an end.
