This Week on the Island 12/4/2016

  ‘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: Another beautiful week just like the last 3 or 4.  We are into the dry season and the temperature is in the low 80’s in the day and low 70’s at night. Lots of sunshine, blue skies and white fluffy clouds.

This week, Dec 1, was the end of Hurricane Season. We are always glad to see it go especially this year with no hurricanes coming to Key West.

We took a road trip to pick up a new dog. We rented this Jeep Compass.

We drove 500 miles north to Inverness, FL. That is a little over 130 miles from Key West to the Florida Turnpike in Florida City. Then from Mile Marker 0 up to the other end of the Florida Turnpike at Mile Marker 329. Then a few more mile to Inverness, Fl. We picked up Teeki (just think of a Key West Tiki Hut). Then we turned around and came home.

I went to pick up Boca and brought him home. He is on the right and Koda is on the left in the headboard on my side of the bed.

Saturday night we took Teeki to her first Key West Christmas Parade. She really likes all new strange smell of Key West.
