Key West by land

Well, we tried to send a "SPOT" from Key West, but it didn't want to lie to you and wouldn't go!  We tried the continental breakfast that is included with our slip and then drove to Key West so Jay could get his race week fix.   It's hard to tell if the temperature or the economy was responsible, but things were MUCH quieter in Key West than Jay and Pegg were used to.  We drove along the coast, where we could see three different racing venues.  The winds were quieter today but we couldn't really see any of the action.  We ate lunch out on the docks and froze!  NOT what we expected from Key West.    We wandered around town a bit and then headed back.  We stopped at Marathon around 3 to have a beer at the Sombrero Dock Bar.  We asked if anyone knew Jennifer Brewster (she is the younger sister of  someone Martha grew up with back in Rumson, NJ) and the bartender (after vetting me) called Jennifer - - who showed up around twenty minutes later and we had a great time reminiscing about sailing back on the Shrewsbury River in Woodpussies. We got back aboard Brunelle around 6pm and will try Coconuts, the local restaurant tonight. ~~~(\_~~~D&M

Jay was in his element

Martha and Jennifer Brewster get re-acquainted after probably 50 years!
