This Week on the Island 06/21/2020

‘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: Waterspout dropping down, over the light pole.

Of course, the week started with Flag Day.

We have Saharan Dust, happens every year, headed this way.

It causes beautiful sunsets. It also dries out the air and keeps the hurricanes away.

The grass at the dog park was mowed this week. It really looks good.

The iguana are grocery shopping.

With the repaving of Duval Street, the city replaced the rainbow crosswalk at Petronia and Duval.

Not to be left out, Key West also had protesters. The chickens were protesting outside Church’s Chicken.

We leave you this week with a look at the ships channel at 6:22 AM Thursday morning while Teeki and I were on our morning walk. This was taken outside the Margaritaville Hotel with Sunset Key in the background.

Key West,

Close to Perfect, Far from Normal’
