I speak to many locals, have met amazing people. This house on a post is for book donations. Instead of throwing your books out you can bring to one of these.

The town of Ocean Ridge has their own Police dept. and a City Hall across the street from the…read morepublic Oceanfront Beach which is in the Boynton Beach jurisdiction but patrolled by Ocean Ridge police. There is a $10.00 fee for beach parking during season and weekends. Free to walk in or bicycle into. The town of Ocean Ridge has their own political community and there are beautiful new McMansions as well as small, old condos where people rent seasonally. The houses are unique in external features which makes taking a drive along A1A very interesting. There are a few pedestrian cross walks where by law, the pedestrian has right of was and all traffic must stop. I still look both ways and make sure the traffic stops because I never know who is not paying attention. The town of Ocean Ridge is not commercialized in the way of shopping and dining. There are no chain restaurants or strip shopping centers. It is really just a little sleepy town where you either reside or use it as a drive through between Manalapan and Delray.

Good times!

Scrambling to find testing, drive-thru testing is available at South County Civic Center 7 days a week from 9-7. We're all vaccinated and have our boosters. My husband & I tested negative last week when we flew back from Colombia so I'm not too worried, but with the holidays, we have family coming, and we all have to work in the office this week, so just to be safe. The line is long. It wraps all through the parking lot and onto Jog Road. It moves and is well organized. I got on the line at 11:15, an hour later, I'm about half way through. From start to finish it was just under 2 hours. Not they way I wanted to spend my Sunday morning, but it is what it is. Testing for both tests, the rapid and the PCR took less than a minute. Results for the rapid came back really fast. We weren't even home yet when the text came through. So what were the results...my younger boy and I are negative and my husband and the older one will be in a hotel in Miami for the next 10 days.

Much to their credit they are fast, friendly... and get this... they let you smile for your driver's license photo, unlike many other states nowadays... (Something about how a smile transforms your face and can hide your true identity, according to some law enforcement somewhere...) So two hours later, I'm an official 'Floridian' license and registration and all. The service was great, the facilities are generic government bunker style, but clean and bright, not a bad place to sit for a couple of hours...

This is a major tragedy waiting to happen. All the people on her floor are elderly. None of them could walk the stairs. They are shut in. Frankly, this is disgusting.
