This Week on the Island 08/03/2023
‘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: We had a near miss with a
hurricane this week.
The book this week was ‘Deception in Paradise’ by Deborah Brown (2 of 29).
Teeki and I rode over to the Southernmost Point to look south toward Cuba. The clouds were forming but no hurricane.
Hurricane Idalia came by on the Gulf side of the island. We got lots of wind and rain, but the Atlantic side got it lots worst.
Jo and I got out our hurricane plan from last year. It looked right.
Other news, Alabama Jacks is for sale. It is up almost on the mainland on Card Sound Road.
Of course, this weekend is Labor Day weekend.
Sad info, Jimmy Buffett died at age 76 on Sept 1. I will miss him and his music.
We leave you with ‘Easy like Sunday morning’.

Close to Perfect, Far from Normal’
