In retrospect, it’s probably a bad idea to expect much out of a zoo in the summertime. I mean, the animals are as hot as the humans. They want to be lounging in whatever speck of shade their caged homes provide, and doing as little as possible besides.

Cruising home to my loft in Georgetown, I decided to try the little bakery I noticed down from Stellar’s on Airport Way. A small little hole-in-the-wall, known as “Two Tarts” is a little charming neighborhood bakery with a slice of Georgetown personality. Carries a French name, but far [...]

Coco-Walk, Coconut Grove - Miami, Florida
How on earth do the shops and businesses at the infamous “CocoWalk” in historic Coconut Grove make any money? The parking garage beneath, unlike those found in Los Angeles with similar artsy and fashion-based shopping centers with a mish-mash of bars, nightclubs, movie theaters, restaurants, cafes, [...]
It was 8:30 am, and decided to do some exploring before heading back to Miami. Drove to the Florida Heritage site of the “Smallwood Store” which unfortunately was closed so didn’t get to venture in. The place was thick with mosquitos though … so was eaten alive. Got to see some fiddler crabs on the [...]
