It's Not There Anymore
I can recall the first time I ever went to Clearwater Beach. It was way back in the late 80s when my mother was still driving her cool white Mercury Cougar. We drove all the way from the orange groves of Valrico (a once lovely suburb of Tampa) on what was known as Highway 60 across the Courtney Campbell Causeway bridge straight through to the beach. Then we'd get a table at the closest hotel with a deck for beach viewing, and listen to the steel drums clanging in splendid calypso music as the sun would set, a gorgeous pink cotton candy sky before us. Those were happy times.
