Fountains, Fountains, Fountains




We love our fountains in Hialeah. Now all we need to do is actually fill them up with water so the birds can have a little fun too.

Lo Que Pica El Gallo

It's been a few days since we posted some juicy stuff here on Sweet Home Hialeah. It's been a busy few weeks. We've been swimming through the streets taking photos, thanks to the rain and poor drainage here in Hialeah.

We know you're just sitting around with your thumbs up your culos when we aren't posting so we wanted to turn you on to a new blog on the block to keep you busy on the days we're busy chasing the free range chickens out of our concrete front yards and away from the offerings we left San Lazaro.

Stop by and check out "Lo Que Pica El Gallo" it's pretty funny and the chica's who write it are cute. Here's a excerpt to give you a little taste:

What’s the one word your Abuela would say or add on to every insult about every person she was gossiping about or yelling at you because you were too loud during her “novela que empieza ahora”? Does Cagalistroso/Cagalistrosa ring a bell?

Just What We Need, Another Latin America


Guess what? Hialeah has a new Latin American at Palm Avenue and 7th Street. Just what we needed!

Hialeah Gets a New Bridge


Mayor Julio Robaina joined Mayor Ramon Rodriguez from the City of Medley, Commissioner Jose "Pepe" Diaz and other officials for the inauguration of the new bridge on Okeechobee and West 16th avenue. The bridge connects Hialeah to the city of Medley and provides easier access to NW 72 Avenue. Mayor Robaina addressed the crowd, "This joint construction venture provided many needed jobs to the community and will greatly benefit the businesses in the area."
