Keys bound for Christmas vacation

[Pipe_Dream]

Enjoyed reading and seeing pics from your trip. It's been way too long since I went to the Keys, over 20 years now. Once upon a time I was a regular visitor. Too bad that some made your Key West experience less than good. People can ruin a place -- it's true. If you're familiar with Keys history, it's gone from boom to bust numerous times, typically to bust when a bad hurricane goes through, the kind that they haven't seen in a long time. Recently a group at a party told me that I should go during Fantasy Fest. I said no, in fact that's when I want to be as far away as possible. Looking up now in fact I see a photo of a sailboat that a group of us spent a week on, taken (I believe) from Sawyer Key, a once settled but abandoned island. Now, that's my kind of Keys vacation.

Thanks for posting!
