Born and raised in Miami.
Moved to Raleigh in ‘84. My BP dropped 10 points just from getting out of the drug and thug capital.

Had occasion to visit Ft. Lauderdale, Delray area 2 yrs. ago.
Couldn’t believe how much it has grown.
Built up right out to the Everglades, US 441. That hwy used to be in the boonies. I don’t know where you could find any land that didn’t have water standing on it 6 mos. out of the year.

You couldn’t pay me enough to move back.
Do miss the water, Keys, sailing, stone crabs, snook though.

When I was traveling and selling in the early 80s I stopped going into Dade and Broward when I noticed how many other salesmen carried guns in their cars. I don’t need to sell anything badly enough to risk my life for it.
