flowers blooming in DecemberAs my days are numbered here, trying to gather all the things I want to remember about living here in Key West, which is a good thing about this blog, documenting daily life to help the feeble mind remember... along with the literally thousands of pictures taken.
Just some random thoughts...
having to walk up steps to get into the grocery store or fast food restaurant
the homeless guys sleeping on the beach
lots of bicycles - the worker type at Buddy's job who arrived at work bringing in his bike seat so it wouldn't go missing
the old rundown K-Mart store
meeting an actual artist
the awesome sunsets
the massive cruise ships going by my window
locals in shorts and flipflops at the Christmas tree lot (dang I missed that picture!)
walking on the tarmac at the airport
the ever-changing colors of the ocean and sky
witness to hundreds of beach weddings
the feel of the sand between my toes, sun on my skin
palm trees swaying in the breeze
all the festivals and parades
the laid-back attitude, living on island time
the resident chickens
the history and architecture
delicious seafood at The Rusty Anchor and Hogfish Grill and Red Fish Blue Fish
condo life - surprisingly nice folks, nice digs, and of course my favorite - the magic garbage chute!
