Visiting Miami as All-ton road. "Like All or nothing at all" PS when you
in Miami Beach again Try Big Al's Bagels on 5th St >>>>>
You're correct, I was told by and heard my fellow Miami Beachites comment
that you could tell visitors and new residents to the Beach by the way they
pronounced Alton Road, I guess similar to how you could tell visitors from
New Yorkers when they mentioned Houston St. Here in Denver there are amny
streets that you let you know the familiarity of Denver by the speaker.
