This was another great installment of MOON OVER MIAMI . As always , it is very detailed oriented. I hope there will be more installments on this important aspect of LCN migration to Florida. Please keep it up.

Lol. Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the piece.

Faffy, I never meant to make 3 segments for this storyline. But as I researched for the first story, so many names of different mob guys from all over kept popping up in front of me, that parts 2 and 3 just seemed like a natural fit and accompaniment.

A Part IV ?..... that's pushing it. Lol I'm gonna say that the MMOM series is finished. But who knows? If, during my future research I come across another bevy of names and info that I think a Part 4 is warranted, I might just write it.

I am actually putting the finishing touches on a Queens racket story as I write this to you. It should be up in the next few days

Hey N.Y. what do you think the landscape looks like today in F.L.?

They are still all over SF. I travel to Miami frequently and there's still a heavy presence down there it seems. Obviously, times have changed but they are there, especially around Palm Beach/Boca, Hollywood and South Beach. I'm just going by with what I've heard, but the Bonannos seem to have an unusual high number of guys down there

NOWHERE is the mob's presence the same today and is was years back. Whether it be NYC or anywhere else. Proportionately its been reduced in volume and strength everywhere.

But overall there are still plenty of wiseguys in South Florida, NYC, and NJ. The coverage is still there. In fact, plenty of guys with a few dollars in their pockets jump down to South Florida on a regular basis nowadays. So they are there
