This post is about a step back in time for me and is dedicated to my family and the fun we had in this part of our home state.\u00c2\u00a0 So the fact that nearly NOTHING has changed in this restaurant or along this section of Indian River Drive in Jensen Beach brings an indescribable comfort to me.<\/p>\n

All photos were taken with my iPhone camera as part of a little self-imposed photographic challenge.<\/p>\n

\"ConchyJoes-3076TrulyFlorida\"<\/a>Bahamian dishes, including all things conch, and fresh seafood are among the restaurant’s specialties.<\/p>\n

\"ConchyJoes-3025TrulyFlorida\"<\/a>Deck shoes… enough said.

\"ConchyJoes-3011TrulyFlorida\"<\/a>All of the above are scenes from Conchy Joe’s Seafood<\/a> restaurant, an old Florida institution. Walking into the restaurant, I could still see my beautiful mom laughing as she attempted to line dance to a live band’s music, although she had no idea what she was doing. Conchy Joe’s Seafood <\/b><\/a>3945 NE Indian River Drive, Jensen Beach, FL 34957

\"ConchyJoes-3038BWTrulyFlorida\"<\/a>Window AC units still cool these shotgun cottages that line an old dirt road, which is perpendicular to the Indian River. This spot is still popular for local and visiting fishermen.<\/p>\n

\"ConchyJoes-3041TrulyFlorida\"<\/a>This is one of many elaborate and colorful mobile homes located near the water. I will definitely return to photograph these homes, as each one has a story to tell.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
