Old Florida Lives in Cortez Village
14 OctThis historic marker can be seen in front of the Starfish Seafood Market
This sculpture celebrates FL commercial fishermen
Crab traps can be seen all along the waters edge
Florida “Crackers” still show their colors here
Discarded boat parts become yard art – and it works!
Volvos are converted to Chevys to better blend in
“Excuse me, sir. Is that really the USS Minnow from Gilligan’s Island?”
Amen to that, brother!

Versailles Cuban Cuisine Stands Tall in Miami’s Little Havana
A visit to Miami’s Little Havana neighborhood is like a trip outside the USA. The sights, the smells, the accents — you’ll feel like you’ve really journeyed to Cuba. For many of us, it will be the closest we ever get to the real deal. We only had a few brief hours to explore this […]
