This Week on the Island 10/22/2017

 ‘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 Weather: Beautiful. Sunny, white clouds and blue skies.  

We are now into Stone Crab season.

This week was ‘Goombay’, a celebration of our African Heritage.

We also had ‘The Zombie Ride’ from the airport to downtown.

Next Week will be ‘Fantasy Fest’. http://www.fantasyfest.com/  When you see the parade, click the arrow.

Then ‘The Parrot Heads’, Jimmy Buffett fans, come in the first weekend of November.  https://www.phip.com/meeting-schedule

And lastly, for those that don't keep up on Facebook. My total knee replacement is going well. It has now been three weeks and it is looking good and working well, BUT the ladies at physical therapy still make me cry 3 times a week. I have the same scar from 11 years ago on my other knee.
