Key West


Our last day in Key West was a great one. We got a nice long paddle in as we toured the east and southern shores of Sigsbee Island and a canal that cuts through the center of the island.

The afternoon was spent cleaning up our gear and getting the coach ready to depart in the morning. There was a potluck gathering late in the afternoon, so Barbara prepared her baked bean dish and off we went with our folding chairs. Turned out to be a nice group of folks. They ran the spectrum of ages and I suppose economic situations. Most of these people are living here long term. Some for months; others for years. Nine years in one case. The keys tend to attract an interesting mix of folks and Key West has always been known for the quirky ones. This campground seems to cover the gamut, and it all seems to work. We have had a very good time here, but we are off again in the morning. 

Next stop Sanibel Island. Barbara is on a mission to find some shells.
