KEY WEST

Wednesday, 12/7/22

We made it! 

We rolled in this morning, right on schedule, after 37 travel days and more than 1,400 miles.  We are very impressed with ourselves!

Once again this morning, we had to make the inside/outside decision, and we decided to continue straight down the Hawk Channel.  It was delightful!  We left at 8, and rolled into Key West just before noon.

Lynn said, “I have a proposal!  Let’s not do all the usual work when we arrive.  Let’s tie up the boat, grab a burger at Wahlburger, and have a couple beers!”

And so we did.  Then a walk around the harbor boardwalk, running into a few old friends.

THEN we cleaned the boat.

Now, we’re sitting on the back deck (cockpit) enjoying the breeze and the view of blue sky and blue sea.  It is genuinely nice! 

We have a long list of tasks to complete now that we’re finally here:

• Water pump is acting up (again)

• Depth sounder is not working right

• Guinness needs to be groomed

• Guinness needs a scheduled inoculation

• I need a massage 

• Refrigerator showing an error code

• Mani/pedis for all hands

• Boat really needs to be waxed

Other than that, we are about to slip into a Key West Coma, so don’t be surprised if we go silent for a while!
