Return to Post Apocalyptic Boca Raton
[1] We finally [2] returned to Post Apocalyptic Boca Raton [3] or, as
Spring [4] calls it, Poca Boca. The day was beautiful, and we had the time.
So like Douglas MacAuthor, we returned. Only it wasn't to the Philipines and
it wasn't during a World War but I digress.
Poca Boca isn't all that big an area, being nestled just south of Spanish
River Blvd and just east of FAU (Florida Atlantic University) [5]. We drove
and parked the car along the abandoned road and strolled through the area for
several hours.
The vegetation has gone wild and in one section (around 39^th St. and an
abandonded section of 5^th Ave) the growth has almost overgrown the entire
street. Along 39^th are the foundations for the model homes that were built
in the late 60s and we were amused to find a couch still there in what may
have been the living room.
As we were walking around Spring and I talked about various locations that a
person could potentially squat and remain unseen from homes and streets along
the edge of Poca Boca.
