Key West - August 6
In 2.5 hours I'm headed north to Ft. Lauderdale, for lunch with Paige and Charlie, then off to San Francisco, where I will land around 8:30 tonight - the global circumference will be complete! As fun as this has been, I am ready to get home, see Reinold and our two fuzzy friends....and get ready to leave again Saturday for my MBTI certification course in Washington, DC, followed by a weekend with Reinold at Bob and Sally's place in Utah.
Monday was low key, usual routine, in the evening Claire's friends TK and Brady came over, and TK made grouper for dinner, fantastic meal, fun night. About 6am this morning it finally rained here, torrential downpour for about 25 minutes, which cooled things off significantly, though still very humid. Claire and I are just back from our walk, she has been a fabulous host all week, and made the final stop very enjoyable and restful.
So, the Key West Top 10:
#10 - Fresh grouper, snapper and Florida pink shrimp - amazing seafood here
#9 - Katie the cat's at a distance tolerance of me, versus her usual run for the closet act (Tim, eat your heart out...)
#8 - Amazing meals out - Michael's (did this twice...), Antonia's, Salute, Santiago's, Blackfin, Hogfish
#7 - The backyard swimming pool
#6 - Claire's startling revelation on Sunday morning, 4 years after the kitchen remodel, that the cabinet handles didn't match - tied with this morning's revelation that the kitchen window is listing to the left. I hope the fridge is o.k....
#5 - Lots of fun times with Pam, Claire and Carol on Friday/Saturday/Sunday
#4 - Sunset on Saturday
#3 - Iguanas and Chickens
#2 - Key West's relaxed atmosphere
#1 - 717 Ashe Street, and my pal Claire, the sister I never had
That's it for now, will blog from home tomorrow to wrap this up, stay tuned.
