Back for its 16th year, the Coral Gables Community Foundation’s annual Tour of Kitchens & Tropical Living featured 13 stops this year, from Cocoplum to Gables Estates to the Riviera Golf Course and back. Brave homeowners opened their doors to a crowd of some 1,000 people, who swarmed into ooh and aah over Sub-Zero appliances and marble countertops. This year, attendees had the options of driving themselves, riding in style in Mercedes Sprinter vans, or joining a Bike Walk Gables cycling tour.

In 1952, if you went to the University of Miami on a spring day to visit the Clothesline Sale, you’d walk past the Lowe Art Gallery (now the Lowe Art Museum) and see artwork crowded along the green, strung up on clotheslines. There’d be mostly local artists’ works, juried by a panel of experts. All of the staff on-hand would be women, and all volunteers. Proceeds would go to benefitting the Lowe and local art, but entrance to the event would cost you nothing.

Considering the profusion of restaurants and activities on and around Miracle Mile, we rarely leave downtown Coral Gables for our nights out on the town.

Growing up in Coral Gables, I experienced the rites of passage all coastal kids do – field trips to the beach, learning to swim, summer camp on the water. I loved snorkeling in particular – the brightly colored fish, the fans of swaying coral, the hidden world teeming with life that came alive before my young eyes.

City Hall, the subject of controversy over the last few months, had been effectively evacuated, despite reassurances from multiple structural engineers that the building was entirely safe.
