Marathon 2

We recovered from our horrible gloomy mood.

As usual. Apparently a perennial optimist.

Lunch was good. My first Lionfish sandwich. Venomous but not poisonous. How does that make sense?

Ah, well, by eating one I am helping to purge the reef of intruders. Actually, the food was excellent!

Feeling much better. But I did have two more Hurricanes. That helps. That’s 4 for the day. I once had 6 in New Orleans, and I couldn’t fid my way home.

The late afternoon went better. We met a very nice couple with a nice dog. Billie and Sharon. Had drinks and watched the sunset. Spectacular. (didn’t have my camera.) They claim they saw the Green Flash. I dispute it.

Still, quite tired. And drunk. Microwave lasagna tonight. No energy to go to the restaurant.

And now tomorrow – I have built the route – finally – for Key West.

Short trip tomorrow – maybe 3 hours to the conclusion of this amazing trip.

Fingers crossed.
