This Week on the Island 10/26/2008

'This week on the Island' is written by Doug Bennett and is an update to friends about happenings in Key West last week. Everything is true except for those parts that are lies.----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The picture this week (click to enlarge) is ‘Green and Elizabeth’. I seem to have a strong interest with how deep the water gets at this intersection at high tide.

The Weather: RAIN!!! It has been coming down all week. Wednesday we got 7 ¼ inches. It is really putting a damper on Fantasy Fest.

No book this week.

There is a new book about Captain Tony, ‘Life Lessons of a Legend’ by Brad Menard. The book signing party will be Oct 28th at Capt Tony’s Saloon.

Fantasy Fest, 2008, Pirates, Pundits, and Political Party Animals. It is over. We had a great time. No rain on the parade.

Go to the official web site http://www.fantasyfest.net/ for details. There is something for everybody Pirate and Wench Party, Pet Masquerade Party, Big ‘Uns Party, Plaid Party, Homemade Bikini Party, Toga Party, Pajama and lingerie Party, Git-R-Wet Party, Monster’s Ball, Tea Party, Pimp and Ho Party, The Fantasy Fest Parade, and The Fat Lady Sings Party.

Schooner Wharf had a party Wednesday night and the Mayor of Key West walked the plank off the Schooner Western Union.

Key West, You have got to love it
