A Blast From The Past

To all our family members!

I came across this website containing tons of pictures & images of memorabilia regarding the Miami area, dating as far back as the 1880s to about the present day. I mean, pictures of: Crandon Park, the Tropicaire Drive-In in its heyday, Seaquarium, Parrot Jungle, Monkey Jungle, Frankie's Pizza, The Venetian Pool, The Serpentarium, Bird Bowl, Tropical Horse Track, Radio stations, TV hosts, Captain Kangaroo, School pictures, The Coppertone Billboard of the girl & dog, Burma Shave signs, Brylcream Ads (Dad's favorite back then), Aluminum Christmas Trees, Pee-Wee sodas (made in Hialeah & and a 3-cent refund upon returning the bottle) and much, much more...

There is so much nostalgia in here you'll be busy for a while, looking through images and details of your personal history, and your forebears too. I'm only about half-way through this portion of the site at this point...
