Key West, Florida


We arrived the our campground on 16 February 2010 ....Its on Marathon Island which is at the half way point to Key West ...... This picture was taken the day we arrived ......it was windy and cold .....high around 55 degrees......

Sharon and I spent seven days there and it did warm up to about the mid eighties for a couple days.......We talked to campers near our site they suggested we take the Conch Train Tour ... We did ......it takes about four hours and they show you all the most interesting and fun places at the end of U.S.of A.......





So it was a good start to our Keys adventure .......here are some shots from the train......





We had to visit Ernest Hemingway's' home .....the house was ok but there were way to many cats everywhere.......here are some pictures :





We had lunch and a few beers at the popular " Sloppy Joes " this one dude was toasted and fun to watch .....make sure you check out the video.

We also visited the Truman " White House " ....we weren't allowed to take pictures but it was very neat and full of history ...If anyone goes to the Keys please stop there......

I forgot to tell you all some thing my last blog so ......Yes , Sharon is still here ...............................

  1. Loved reading your last blog and the one before that, Paul and Sharon. You may think Fla. has been cold, but just be grateful that you've been there and not here! Oh the snow that we've gotten in the last 30 hours....ugh! Can't wait to head to Fla. on March 9 - 17. I pray the warm weather and sun, sun, sun gets there before we do and stays there for a long, long time. Enjoy your adventure. Stay well and be happy!
