This Week on the Island 05/17/2020


‘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:  The Dry Season which started at the end of Hurricane Season, last Nov 1, seems to be over and the Rain Season has begun. The helicopter was also spraying for mosquito season. And you people think we don't have seasons down here in Key West.
Book for this week.
Had my 76th trip around the sun last week. Teeki got me a t-shirt.
I decided to make my self a Key Lime pie.
It was gone in no time.
The city is removing the blacktop from Duval Street from the Gulf side to Truman Avenue (US#1).
What week is complete without a trip to Ft. Zack.
And Saturday was Armed Forces Day.
We leave you this week with a rainbow over the dog park on Saturday morning.
On St. Patrick’s Day, Sloppy Joe’s closed. I count the social distancing from that date. So, it has been 2 months of retirement for lots of you folks. Staying at home and no or very little income. How have you enjoyed retirement?


Key West,
Close to Perfect, Far from Normal’
