More likely it's followers of Lycaon. |

When it was fully eclipsed, it was just a reddish hued orb in the sky. At my house it was through the branches of the trees. I wished I had set my tripod up and took pics.! |

When I was a kid, my auntie owned a row of condos on Ft. Lauderdale beach. I remember hunkering down one time looking out the bottom floor windows at an incoming storm and saw my first waterspout, and after the Portugese man o war jelly fish on the beach. Anyway, about 10 years later she sold the property as it was no longer an area really suited for older folks and families. I still wish my dad had picked up that little place on Pine Island, that was sweet... |

The first time I went to the Miami area, I was about 15 or 16, and I was the guest of my girlfriend's family. We stayed at a "motel-hotel" in Ft. Lauderdale. It's long gone, as is its rather famous owner.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Could have been my auntie, they had a real nice spread , right on the water. Nice gardens, probably 150-250 feet of frontage on the water... But I was probably about 8 yo at the time. |

My family flew in the day before the conference ended. We drove to Sanibel Island the following day after the conference ended for a week long vacation. I could not get out of Miami Beach fast enough. Not my kind of city. We had a blast on the Island and returned there a couple of years later. Different strokes...I love Miami Beach, and many parts of Miami, too. We stay a little north of the Beach itself, in Bal Harbour. |
