This Week on the Island 01/11/2015


‘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.
Weather: It got a little cool Wednesday night and Thursday with the high not reaching 70 degrees. Beautiful by the weekend.
This week I read ‘Beyond Paradise’. More new fiction from the Florida Keys.
We live on an island, so there are lots of boats here. I really like the old Schooners. These are  docked next to Schooner Wharf.

Some people like the new large yachts.

And still some people like the even larger cruise ships.

Like I said, we live on an island, so we have them all.
There is a lot of maintenance to living here, like cutting the grass in January.

Or repairing the concrete in the windows at The Bull on Duval.

Or blowing the leaves away from the park next to the library on Fleming St.

But we love living on this little island
And enjoying its sunsets. (Pic from Howard Livingston's Facebook Page.)

  Key West you have got to love it
