For years I’ve occasionally heard the tinest sounds in the background in South Florida. Like a tiny creaking or croaking or cricket-leg scratch. I’d look around though, and there was never anything there. Yesterday, I think I finally found the source of the noises in my head. The littlest bigfoot!

Mojitos are such a thing at La Concha they have their own bar, Tropicado, just inside the doors from Duval St. There are no fewer than six (6) refreshing varieties here. If you try all six, there’s the added plus of a room available upstairs to sleep them off. www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/05/16/r...
