What to do..... well we decided to make the long drive to Key West. Most people from the north think 50 miles is nothing... averaging 60 mph ....not a long drive. But at 35 miles an hour with traffic jams , construction delays and people continually turning left across traffic (with no turning lane) it takes always over two hours. Yet the water is beautiful and there is always a coffee/ bakery stop along the way.

It is fun when you finally got to the big city. After driving through quaint neighborhoods looking for a parking spot. We finally landed on a spot just off Duval Street.

After some wondering around the shops. We purchased visors for relatives up North. Stopped in at an art gallery that features local art. Visited with the manager. It always pleases me to experience the opportunity to start up a conversation with the friendly the keys people . If you take the time you can always start a conversation. We had a good talk about the season and how it was progressing. Business was slow because the tourist were still up North.... yata yata yata. It makes a body feel good to connect.
