I had the pleasure of meeting Alex Alexander about 10 years ago when she jogged the streets of Isles of Capri without breathing hard, while I felt fatigued just watching her run past my house. While doing her standard running miles, she noticed some developers checking out The Blue Heron property.

In all probability, she thought the property and building would sell quickly, and sadly, be demolished so she bought the quaint, intimate restaurant to keep it on the Isles and continue the tradition it started.
