Our Purposefully Laid-Back Day

We chose Lauderdale-By-The-Sea because it is a very cool, easy going town without a lot going on. It was just what we wanted for our final day before traveling abroad.

After coffee and breakfast on our porch, we headed out to just delightfully meander.
Our Welcome Mat was a sweet reminder of what we already knew... "Life is better in Flip Flops".

What fun to have my feet in the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
This was a sad sight. Lauderdale-By-The-Sea’s pier, Anglin’s Fishing Pier, was damaged by the wind, rain and waves created by  Tropical Storm Nicole in November of 2022. The pier has a long history in the city, going back to 1940. It was destroyed in 1963 and rebuilt. A year and a half later and it's still is destroyed. So sad.
Tacocraft Taqueria & Tequila Bar was the location of lunch and some postcard writing to the grands. It was also the perfect people-watching spot, with unique food and live music.
Steve and I shared the taco platter with my selection being comprised of mushroom confit, roasted corn, cotija cheese, and cilantro crema. Yum.
This town has a lot of midcentury architecture. I loved this font.
This poster was plastered on the side of a car and I just had to share it. There are things in life that that strike me as funny/interesting, MarryDave.com is one of them. The guy is sincere and the website is worth reading. I wish the best for him. Wow.

Bench sitting, a favorite pastime!
We have passed this church bell tower (c. 1959) a few times walking to the market. I found it to be very cool. It is just another architectural element that makes this village feel of another era. We picked well.
I don't think one photo could sum up the day better than this one! Life is Good!
