Key West, FL. Nov 20th - 22, 08

Nov 20th- 22, 08 Key West, FL.
Bruce was wrong about the seas being calmer.  Small craft warnings kept the dive-boats docked all the way to Key West.  Fortunately, he was right about the weather being warmer so we were able to at least walk around and enjoy the sites.

Key West is an artist’s delight….lots of beautiful vistas, unique architecture, and brilliantly pure light.

I had been there on a business trip some 15 years ago.  It had grown and become a little more commercial, but much of its laid back charm remained.

  Even its Denny’s restaurant looked quaint.
Bruce had never been to Key West at all, so he was happy to walk around seeing all the “southern-most” tourist sites,
Southern most tip of contiguous USA
Southern most Key West Fl  Mileage market
Art Galleries and Shops in Key West FL
and visiting all of their art galleries.
 One of the things we enjoyed the most was seeing all the roosters wandering around loose.


 One of the things we enjoyed the most was seeing all the roosters wandering around loose.  They were everywhere.  I even saw one standing in an open door of a Catholic Church.  He looked so proud and red against the darkened interior.
The RV camp ground we stayed in at Key West was lovely and peaceful.
