Fall is perfect for Space Coast exploration

Current Issue, Local, Publisher's Note

If Mother Nature is kind to us this year, the subtle signs of fall along the Space Coast will be all around us. The humidity may have eased a bit, the thermometer may no longer be stuck at 80 degrees or higher, and the Atlantic Ocean and Indian River Lagoon may once again be offering cooler breezes.

Starry sights

Arts & Community, Current Issue, Local

It sounds like the stuff of fantasy but one of the most iconic heroines in children’s literature is coexisting happily with a tormented master of Impressionism and a slightly air-headed genie, on the Cocoa Beach Causeway.

Hidden gem

Arts & Community, Current Issue, Local

Bananas for pudding?

Current Issue, Indian River Kitchen, Local

I learned to make banana pudding the same way a lot of people do: in my grandma’s kitchen, without a recipe, eyeballing the ingredients. We made it often, especially when it was too hot to turn on the oven. It was her go-to dessert to feed a crowd, especially for a Summerlin fish fry. She always made it early in the day, because it only gets better after chilling for hours.

Nature, Heritage and the Heart of the Space Coast

Local, Publisher's Note

Embedded firmly in the history of the Space Coast are two very disparate creatures: cows and sea turtles. Long before the rockets’ red glare, cattle were an important part of the area’s culture and economy. As for the sea turtles, they’ve been nesting on our beaches since well before the indigenous Ais were busy harvesting shellfish from the Indian River Lagoon.

Herd mentality

Local

The scene is bucolic, timeless. As the morning mist lifts, cowboys on horseback with dogs at their sides weave their way among a herd of cattle. It could be a pastoral scene from the TV drama, Yellowstone. Instead, it is happening in Viera, not far from shopping centers, high-tech companies, restaurants and bustling traffic.

Florida’s wildest cowboy

Local

It was a hot day in 1892 as Bone Mizell and two cowpoke companions rode the brush flats of central Florida in search of stray cattle. They spotted a tawny bag of bones with murderous horns — but no brand — at the edge of a thorny thicket.

Turtle loving care

Current Issue, Local, Nonprofit spotlight

They start arriving as early as March, these ancient mariners from distant lands. They zero in on Space Coast beaches, but they are not here for the rays and the relaxation. They are here for the survival of their species.

Hurricane Preparedness

Local

If you live on the coast or in a mobile home, you may have to evacuate in the event of a major storm forecast for your area. While you will undoubtedly get instructions from the local government, it’s wise to create your evacuation plan well before a disaster strikes.
