Your uncle Seraffyn entertained at the Treadway Inns Boar’s Head feasts celebrating the 12 days of Christmas. There is a video online that shows most of the ceremony. My father was one of the hotel managers and for several years I was the sprite (elf) who rode in on the Yule log. My brother was a beefeater, my mother was one of the lusty wenches.

Had breakfast one day at the FLa Pharmacy (fag farm)and met an older lady who rented me room at 3608 Royal Palm (she had horse racing $$). Bought a '63 Porsche from a divorcing pilot as I finished my BA at UM. Levine owned a house on the corner, Walter Hotchkiss lived nearby, Old man Hasker lived across the street, as did the Platts. Girls were easy to find..Carmen, Marty, Nancy just to name a few and older ones like real estate girls at the Mutiny..Surfer John was there, Duane (Drano) the movie theater(upstairs) and across from the Winn-Dixie on Virginia St. where black people did their laundry as segregation was still in the wings. The pharmacy on Main and Grand did not (would not) serve black people.A nasty old guy named 'Ned' ran Blue water Marine, a drugged out English guy ran an espresso stand with his drugged out girlfriend in the alley way between Dade Cycle and Blue water..The Hungry Sailor would not be considered expensive by today's standards..The 'Gay' cafe on Main by the breezeway had its own clientele. Others went to the luncheonette on Main across from Blue water. Lum's was down the block on McFarland. Down Main was the artist's coop where I bought a Scornavacca. Neith Nevelson..Walking or riding around selling art on bottle caps, old canvas. I still have all of them. The little crippled Haitian guy selling paintings in front of the PO..Serge going to the PO, no shirt, gold Rolex..Deep Throat was filmed at his house.The Taurus.Girls, girls, girls. Helene and Sue Mason and her sister Kaye. I'm about done and then I left; for good. b4awlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00780123379829359481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786817661804887374.post-75277372832313765812018-01-24T17:56:16.295-08:002018-01-24T17:56:16.295-08:00Where is Ron Kickasola??Where is Ron Kickasola??Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15465939997672890129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786817661804887374.post-25542146994090141042017-11-22T23:25:01.052-08:002017-11-22T23:25:01.052-08:00hello first let me begin by saying,,, james mccle...hello first let me begin by saying,,, james mccleery did not grow up in coconut grove I did I was just using his computer; whatever, very computer savy...still when i say i gerw up IN rl pham I did right behind art filling legal scriptes , might be why i dont do drugs anyway, this is be monitered,,, very sad Bobby where are you[dont know where the questian mark is on this thing] PLEASE call or get in touch C.A much love to you and glad to know you are still walking this planet love always, Freys bike partner to watch the trafic go by on main until barkers beauties came on.

I met many great talents there. One of my best friends until the day he died was Freddy Neil. When I was 14 FN told me when I became of age he would by me a house on a cliff overlooking the ocean in Maine. The dolphin project at the Coconut play house is something Ive telling my children about since they were born. I don't think they ever believed me, so thanks. Maybe someone should get in touch with chuck azar...he has film and video of all the greats who ever even dreamed about CG. I left the grve when they started paving paridise to put up parking lots[just a qoute another dear friend] and hate having to go back for personal or buissness reasons.

I remember Scornavacca and all of the funky art galleries along the main and side-streets in the small stucco houses, many with chicken wire on the porches to hang the art on. The Tom Thumb Cafe, next to the Gaslight had the best bread & rice pudding, kept warm in a metal drawer behind the counter.<br /><br />Michael Lang - who put on the first Miami Pop Festival with Hendrix, The Mothers, Blue Cheer etc. in '68 - had The Headshop South there. He later produced the first Woodstock Festival.<br /><br />Coconut Grove used to be one of the finest little scenes in Miami, but big Money (including the unnecessary move by the Bee Gees there) changed all that.

Barry first started playing bass with his big brother, Don Dunaway, at the age of 12. They played at The Flick ('69-'74) with various folks I've recognized from this blog, but never had the honor or pleasure to meet in person. Barry's continued his career and in August of 2013, Barry was blessed with the bass slot for southern rockers .38 Special www.barrydunaway.com Don and Barry both continue to live with their families in St. Augustine, FL.

Thank you Dave for a wonderful portrait of what must have been an amazing time and place!<br /><br />I’m wondering if anyone remembers Seraffyn, aka Donald Mork. He was my uncle. He performed at a coffeehouse in Coconut Grove in April 1964. Seraffyn was pretty unforgettable. He dressed as a wandering minstrel in a doublet, tights and boots, sang, told stories and played the lute.<br /><br />The gig in Coconut Grove was one of his last before he was killed in a car accident on his way home to New York. I’d like to hear from anyone who met Seraffyn Mork during his time in The Grove.<br /><br />Alison Mork<br />mork@gmx.comA.M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16418690209480190247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786817661804887374.post-29480021433203134392013-03-06T14:10:13.809-08:002013-03-06T14:10:13.809-08:00Thanks for the peak into the past!

I came to Coconut Grove in 71 and stayed a few months,I ended up returning 6 months later and stayed for a year. =)<br />At first I was just one of those 17 yr old street kids 'spare-changing' aroung Peacock Park and the library. We would try to get up enough money for 'eats', which was usually bologna and bread, with a very small package of sliced cheese to turn it into a 'fancy' meal! If we were successful in our begging, we would have enough for breakfast at the luncheon counter on the corner! <br />We eventually discovered sopers and our lives changed forever. Tween outdoor rock concerts on the keys (even leaving our boots in the van of a casual aquaintance, that we didn't see again for 10 days!) and pot and sopers, and lots of friendly ladies, it was a testosterone filled young mans paradise!!<br /> The friend that I hitchhiked down from Illinois with took off for six weeks to Clearwater with a friend we met from Atlanta named 'Spoon'! His moniker wasn't what you may think at first, he aquired the name from a very ordinary looking tablespoon that he carried with him that he used for his meals! ;)<br />I happened to meet up with a nice gal from Toledo, who called herself 'Holly'. I never knew if that was her real name or not. The two of us stayed together at 'crashpads' set up throughout the Grove. Those places weren't exactly advertised by the way. lol. I remember Bubbas, and all the headshops, the Dinner Key Auditorium and just hanging out at Peacock Park, where also we would catch the big Hare Krisna luncheon and dancing. =) . We had a great couple months together, but I had to go back to Illinois to finish up some court business. I said I would be back asap. She said " I hope it doesn't hit you too hard." I didn't know what she was talking about exactly. Love? Separation? I was a naive young lad and didn't know anything about drug withdrawal until somewhere south of Indianapolis.<br />She was a great woman, I miss her still to this day, and yes I think I fell in love with her.<br />And all that was my two month, first visit to Coconut Grove. A place that will remain deeply ingrained into my consciousness forever. Even perhaps into my next life. =)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508992345819644451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786817661804887374.post-60387187939360472002013-03-06T13:59:49.923-08:002013-03-06T13:59:49.923-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508992345819644451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6786817661804887374.post-84634287001524162842012-06-11T07:57:13.993-07:002012-06-11T07:57:13.993-07:00There has never been and will never be a better ti...There has never been and will never be a better time and place to come of age than Coconut Grove in the 1960s.
