Leslie Diver and her redheaded, three-year old dachshund Mojo, live happily together in a very unassuming, one-bedroom rental just north of Publix, the only supermarket in the town of Palm Beach.

Unassuming perhaps, but with the 33480 zip code (infinitely preferable to 90210), this duo resides in one of the world's most celebrated resort destinations. The Town of Palm Beach, while only 3 blocks wide and 13 miles long, boasts "the best of the best" when it comes to millionaires and billionaires. Town residents include entertainers Rod Stewart and Jimmy Buffet, conservative radio talk show host, Rush Limbaugh, and self-appointed master of the universe, Donald Trump. Understated elegance is a safe bet here as one-upmanship takes a whole new meaning on this piece of paradise.

During the summer, the population in Palm Beach shrinks from it's "in-season" high of 40,000 to 10,000, leaving Leslie and Mojo as two of the remaining year-round residents. Throughout the year, Leslie is at work as the owner and operator of Island Living Tours, her company that provides chauffeur-driven, architectural/historical tours of the town. Recently, Leslie added several bike tours to her specialty tour menu.

It was after an enjoyable 20-year career as a financial adviser that Leslie decided to take the proverbial plunge into entrepreneurship and start her private touring company five years ago. "I work harder now and have longer hours, but I totally love what I do!! I have absolutely no regrets with my career change decision," Leslie says.

A 20-year resident of the town of Palm Beach, Leslie serves on its Architectural Review Commission. Her company, Island Living, is a member of the Town of Palm Beach Chamber of Commerce and Palm Beach County's Convention and Visitor's Bureau. Leslie is also a board member of The Daily Bread Food Bank of South Florida.

Leslie, who is a bit of a health nut, says at the end of the day, she loves nothing more than to snuggle with Mojo while watching a "Law & Order" marathon.
