I grew up in Miami, on Key Biscayne, i remember like it was yesterday, that every single weekend without exception, i would go with my mother on saturdays to the omni, and while she di her hair at super cuts, i would get 5 dollars for the game room, thats were they first had D&D the game. We would then have lunch at cozzolis the best pizza !!,then we would go to the movies. I remember that we would always park in the same place, and come in were cozzolis was , right next to a piano store, that had all these cool organs ( which i always wanted to buy)….
After the movies, we would always go to champs, were i would often get one of those footballs, the small ones… they were always great saturdays!! always great fun…
I moved back to latin america in 1989, which seemed only fitting as the 80;s had come to and end, my mother died of cancer in 06 at 58, and to the end, one of the things we would always laugh about was those great weekends when i was a little boy…
I am married now 34y old, have a thriving company, and there is not a trip that gose by, that i dont drive by the Omni, (never go in ) just drive by, and….
Am greeted by the echos of memories past, and for a brief moment…
