Deering Point Park
Okay, so here's the deal.
Deering Point park on Old Cutler Road in south Miami has just re opened. It was a sort of un used, place that only serious fishermen went to. Now after having been closed for renovations, it reopens (complete with ribbon cutting ceremony) with brick pavers , a canoe launch ramp, new palms, and looking at it, room for what may someday be a picnic shelter? (I am speculating)
This was the kind of little out of the way place that one could go to escape the crowds, have some quiet, and do some fishing. The parking lot was rough, not "need a Jeep" rough, but it kept you going slow, for sure. Now you can get close to the water in your Honda without wrecking your undercarriage. I hope this doesn't come with the problems that normally come with this kind of improvement, namely trash being left behind and throngs of people blasting music on oversized portable stereos.
Anyway, if you are in South Miami, come check it out, and bring a fishing pole!
