Happy Birthday, Fort Lauderdale…and Misha!!

Posted on March 27, 2011 by admin

Happy 100th Birthday, Fort Lauderdale!! Thanks for being my hometown.

Lookin' good, Lauderdale

On this special day, we think about Frank and Ivy Stranahan and all of the early settlers who shaped this town when it was little more than a wilderness. Stranahan House pictured below.  There was no Cheesecake Factory next door to this little home in their day. I think that Ivy would have been a fan of the avocado eggrolls! Take a moment to check out these photos from the city’s early days. My favorite photo collections are the aerial views and beach and spring break.

Stranahan House -- How the pioneers lived!

Also, happy birthday to my very own Misha, the greatest pal a girl could have!
