Remembering A Long Ago Trip To Vizcaya






I took the photograph on the left of my sister Susan and mother Mary many years ago, when we drove from my mother's condo in Stuart, Florida to Coconut Grove, an upscale Miami neighborhood, to tour the Vizcaya House and Gardens. Located along Biscayne Bay, this was the winter home of John Deering, of International Harvester fame, and is quite spectacular. Afterwards, we headed to Miami Beach and got coffee at The News Cafe, which was (and possibly still is) on Ocean Drive in the heart of the Art Deco District. We were well on our way back to Stuart before sunset, when the hipsters come out to play and the sidewalks become crowded with revelers, winter or summer. No wonder they have a Covid problem down there.
