This Week on the Island 08/27/2023

 

‘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: It is still hot.

The book this week was ‘Crazy in Paradise’ by Deborah Brown (1 of 29).

The dogs and I walk early in the morning. This is Harpoon Harry’s on Caroline Street at sunrise as we were on our way back home.

We apparently have a problem with the trees crossing the road and not using the cross walk. This tree was hit by a car.

This is the 107^th year of the National Parks Service. This is Fort Jefferson about 70 miles west of Key West. It was built on Garden Key and was used as a blockade of the Southern Ports in the Civil War. It was also a Union Prison. Dr Mudd was held here.

August 26^th was Dog Day. Here are Teeki and Bolt.

We leave you with ‘Easy like Sunday morning’.
