where the tropics begin


When headed southbound on the Dixie Highway there is no mistaking when you have crossed the city line of West Palm Beach into Lake Worth. Although often referred to by some (myself and Nelson) as Lake Worthless, its quaintness and trashiness has an undeniable charm.

where i live


It has taken me almost two years to appreciate West Palm Beach, the city in which I currently reside. My neighborhood, Grandview Heights, is one of the many reasons I am finally content in this strange paradise.

Grandview Heights is one of 13 historic districts located in the City of West Palm Beach. The name Grandview Heights is derived from the neighborhood’s location atop the Atlantic Ridge just south of Okeechobee Boulevard. Once upon a time residents with two story homes could see the beautiful Atlantic Ocean over the island of Palm Beach from their second floor windows.
