Here I am in The Conch Republic.
I flew into Miami and drove down to Key West. The sun was still asleep when I started the drive, about a 3 hour drive. As the sun started to peak onto the horizon, I noticed the sliver of moon and bright star right above it. It was the coolest image, but my camera was in the suitcase in the trunk...and I was on a mission to get to the hotel.
After flying 9 hours, sleeping about 4 1/2 of it, and then having to drive, alone, for 3-4 hours...I just kept the beautiful sky in my mind and not on my camera!
So why am I here? Am I crazy traveling AGAIN?
Well, yes...I am crazy, but mostly this is a fact finding mission.
We are considering buying a house here in Key West.
It is a great time for buyers, and a house is sounding really nice!
The trip has been worth it. So far, I have seen two properties that are worth the trip...and one that we am seriously thinking of making an offer.
I have had the chance to enjoy Duval Street and all the crazy goings on that happen there...the tourist shops, the fortune tellers, the drunkards, Mallory Square at
sunset, the great scallops I had last night for dinner! (though I did quite a few looks while eating alone in a popular tourist destination!)
Anyways, I'll keep you updated and be back home on Monday!
Hope you all enjoy a great weekend!
