HARD TO BELIEVE IT'S BEEN OVER 20 YEARS

It was back in 1997, with frozen toes and a ravaged umbrella I came to a decision. Having suffered the Windy City’s winters since childhood, it was time for life in a warmer climate; a life in paradise. A few phone calls and my plans were being set.

I arrived in Fort Lauderdale, having never visited South Florida before. First I dipped my foot into the sand then settled into an apartment in the Lake Ridge area for $450 a month.

It didn't take long for me to acclimate to a daily lifestyle of inspiring sunrises and epic sunsets, blended with soothing echoes of rolling tides.

Back then, the landscape of this Atlantic coastal area was very different. Victoria Park was the happening place to live, being a picturesque tree-lined neighborhood with charming cottages and L-style apartment buildings. ‘Buy Here - Pay Here’ car lots, mobile homes and quaint store fronts dotted Wilton Manors thoroughfare. North Federal Highway was bursting with eclectic nightlife venues enticing tourists to take advantage of ‘Ladies Night’.

Fort Lauderdale Beach’s iconic wave wall had just been completed. Fort Lauderdale’s Gay Pride Parade featured less than a dozen floats along Federal Highway, south of Sunrise Boulevard. And back then, a three-bedroom home with carport could be purchased for around $70,000.

Since, I’ve watched Fort Lauderdale’s downtown take on new facades with its scenic elevation rising, building-by-building, while the Greater Fort Lauderdale Convention & Visitors Bureau re-branded our beach community to national and international tourists, and expressly invited the GLBTQ tourists to enjoy our scenic beaches, vibrant nightlife and 30+ lifestyle guesthouses and boutique hotels.

The progress I’ve witnessed in South Florida is impressive. Quaint seasonal communities have flourished into year-round residential relocation destinations. Shopping and arts districts have taken root and blossomed. Las Olas Boulevard found a place on the map as a renowned shopping and culinary district. And the value of real estate increased over 900%. Damn I wish I would have bought that $70,000 home on 26th Street!

While I didn’t buy that home, I did find lifelong friends. I found my direction, my purpose. I've been blessed with three incredible fur babies. I've aged. I've grown. To sum in up, I didn't buy that home, but I found my home. Thank you Fort Lauderdale!
