The City of Miami is where I went to college, eloped with my high school sweetheart, and where my gorgeous daughters were born. 

This image shows Bayshore Drive, looking south from Flagler Street during the roaring 20s. The entrance to the new Dixie Pier is seen on the left.

Built back in 1923 it was situated just south of the Elser Pier at the foot of E. Flagler St. Many fishing boats and excursion vessels for trips into the bay and up the Miami River to the Everglades were docked at the Dixie Pier.

As a young man, I went to college, earned my advanced degree, first married and my two lovely daughters were born in Miami.

This coastal city was founded by a woman named Julia DeForest Tuttle a successful businesswoman who owned the property upon which Miami, Florida, was built. For this reason, she is called the "Mother of Miami." and is the only woman to be the founding mother a major American city.
