Flagler Monument Island – Last Week’s Where’s JWo Answer
With boating season coming up, though it would be fun to post some spots that are close to marinas and different from going to the sand bars and Elliot Key. Flagler Monument Island is right off of the Venetian Islands in Miami Beach. There are a few picnic tables, and the sculpture designed by H.P. Peterson, with four individual statues, is unique and offers an interesting piece of history.

Hurricane Season Coming Up June First
Hurricane season can be a bit of a roller coaster ride with storms swirling out at sea, uncertain projection paths, and an onslaught of news coverage if one comes even close to making landfall. Take some of the worry out of the season by going through your check list now and making sure your home is protected.

PortMiami Plans For Future
Last week’s Business Monday in the Miami Herald featured “PortMiami’s Big Dream” about the port’s master plan. I really liked their concept for developing the southwest corner. What do you think about making this working port a tourist and business hub?
Which Building in Miami Will Win “Florida’s Best Building”?
Today is the last day to vote for Florida’s Best Building. It was fun to go through the list and vote. I was surprised by some of the buildings that were on the list as well as by the ones that didn’t make it. The buildings are listed by city. Guess which is the only buildings in Coral Gables to make the list?
Miami International Film Festival Starts Tomorrow
I don’t know about you, but as someone who lives in Miami, I am enjoying our bustling activity-filled weekends. This will be the third weekend in a row with a major event happening in town. In addition, the weather has been summer-like and perfect for the beach! Luckily many of the films shown during the festival, which runs through March, are shown at night.
Miami Is A Boater’s Paradise
If you are visiting Miami for the International Boat Show, welcome. Whether you are here for the first time or have been here often, if you are here for boats check out the marina resources on the right hand side of this blog. Interested in properties that are close to marinas? How about homes with their own dock? Boating around Miami, to the Bahamas or beyond is just one more reason I Love So Fla!
Free Things To Do In Miami: New World Symphony Wallcast
Tomorrow night at 7:30 the New World Symphony Wallcast is From Russia with Love. Bring a blanket and picnic to watch this sold out concert broadcast on the wall.
Miami International Boat Show & Coconut Grove Arts Festival
Next weekend is another reason I love south Florida. Both the boat show and the art festival are in town together over President’s Day weekend. Sure traffic will be heavy and favorite restaurants will be packed, but we get to be a part of all of the fun activities surrounding these events, show off where we live, and here friends, relatives, and visitors tell us how lucky we are to live here!
