Every year, the neighborhood of Indian Mound hosts a huge block party in late March. While the event began as a celebration of life for a friend lost too soon, it’s continued as a tribute to living and enjoying the good life here in the Keys. It’s no wonder: this neighborhood is known as one of the most family-friendly communities to live in. This past weekend, the festivities included live music from the Carousers, a crawfish boil, and so many pounds of Lou’s conch fritters and Jerry’s smoked beef jerky. As the sun went down and the band went on, kids and couples danced in the streets. Neighbors met each other and came together as a community. The evening went on well past 2 a.m. with revelers still going strong under the moonlight.
