here and there


Travel - Key West airport - rode the scooter to the airport (5 minutes), parked for free, breezed through security, walked on the tarmac to board the plane. Atlanta Airport - walked for miles, rode the subway, rode the skytrain, stood in line for the rental car, sat in bumper to bumper traffic...




Food - As good as the seafood is in Key West, it was good to have some good ol' Southern cooking, fried chicken, biscuits and gravy…

Sleeping - At home, it sure is dark, and quiet…

Sunrise - in Key West 6:50, daily we look out at the sun coming out of the ocean. Home, 8:00, still waiting for the sun to come over the mountain. And there are no cruise ships on the horizon either…

Shopping - wow, a Wal-Mart! Huge and well-lit compared to the little old K-Mart in Key West. And just look at those acres of parking lot! We did a sneak-peek at the Thursday night sales, saw the folks starting to come in for the mayhem, on the way out the greeter said, aren't you staying for the show?



Okay we are back here for our last month or so, it should be a busy one, Buddy has to finish up the bank, I have to finish up some gifts, there are cards to mail and of course The Christmas Letter. We are looking forward to seeing how Key West does Christmas, if it is like everything else here, it should be memorable and of course involve a parade or two!
