As summer begins\u2026.<\/b><\/p>\n

As we go to press, all the best to those running and walking in the annual 5K Twilight Run.\u00a0 This year, all the more special, as it is in memory of John \u201cPapa Hans\u201d Huseby, of TEAM FOOTWORKS, who passed away suddenly this past November.<\/p>\n

Along with the Spin y Lobster Tournament held at Sunset Tavern, you know it\u2019s the official start of summer here in SOMI.<\/p>\n

The summer months are fine diving months here in South Florida.\u00a0 Our cover feature explores the reefs and wrecks you\u2019ll find in the BISCAYNE NATIONAL PARK and in the JOHN PENNECAMP STATE PARK.\u00a0 As SOMI Magazine is committed to bring our readership information about our cultural resources above ground, I thought it was a good time to look underwater
\nas well.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s becoming more usual to report on multiple restaurant openings in our What\u2019s New feature, and that\u2019s a good sign.\u00a0 In the recent months, we\u2019ve had two new restaurants open, and after a year of having a \u201cComing Soon\u201d sign on their US1 windows, Rice, House of Kabob, is now officially open!\u00a0 Interior work is being done in the vacated restaurants which were once Trattoria Sole and Casa Larios.\u00a0 I\u2019m certain that in our next issue, I can introduce you to two new SOMI restaurants.\u00a0 Several new boutiques and showrooms have recently opened in town; you can also read more about them in the News segment of the magazine.<\/p>\n

And what\u2019s new also is that The Shops at Sunset Place is now sold.\u00a0 Plans are being discussed for vast improvements to The Shops.\u00a0 Stay tuned for an announcement coming later this summer as the plans are revealed.<\/p>\n

In this issue of SOMI Magazine, we conclude our series on the historically significant buildings within our South Miami Town Center, with the Dorn Brothers Buildings, the iconic entrance to our retail and restaurant\u00a0 district.\u00a0 Prior issues are archived online at www.somimag.loc.\u00a0 I hope you get to appreciate the charm and uniqueness of our shopping and dining district.<\/p>\n

As SOMI Magazine is committed providing updates to our readership regarding The Underline,\u00a0 an ambitious project to transform the fallow land under the Metrorail from Dadeland to downtown Miami into an urban park and trail, we are providing a periodic update (see page 33).\u00a0 The proposed plan is suggested to provide all kinds of amenities for joggers, cyclists, and those who want to enjoy some new landscaped spaces.\u00a0 We covered The Underline in our last issue; of the magazine, and in this issue, we note public meetings and activities over the last several months.\u00a0 SOMI Magazine is committed to this project\u00a0and to the development of the Ludlam Trail, key trails which
\nwill ultimately increase the cycling connectivity throughout\u00a0the county.<\/p>\n

I invite you to \u201cBe Part of the Conversation\u201d and weigh-in with your comments in our Readers Survey which is online.\u00a0 Your comments are always welcome, especially as we look forward to our eleventh year in publishing the magazine come this October\/November.<\/p>\n

Enjoy your summer, and wherever your travels take you, be safe\u2026See you at the July 4th celebrations!<\/p>\n
