I've lived in several different apartments in and around Cocoa Beach, back
in
the '60s, when the place was cool and you could drive on the beach.

I would have liked to have seen it back then.
My first visit was during the Challenger recovery and while it was quieter
than it is now, it was still pretty busy. Moved to the area in 1988 and
bought an old house on the Indian River for 90k. Times have changed...
