During a recent open house we had at 1280D S. Franklin Ave, at the Lakeshore community in Homestead, I met one of the neighbors who shared with me his love of fishing.
His unit was directly across the big lake from 1280D. In the 30 minutes he was casting his line he caught and released two fish, the second of which he was getting off the hook when I came by. In the late afternoon, with a gentle breeze, it was...Continue Reading!
