February 17 - 20 / Day 272 - 275 / Key West to Marathon


Sat. 2/17 left KW @ 8 and arrived at Faro Blanco in Marathon about 2:00.  Millie met Scout, a 6 mo. Golden Retreiver and lured him into the water for a refreshing swim.  Docktails with some friends and dinner at  Lazy Days with the crews of Hour Plan, Shell Belle, and Seascape.

Sun. 2/18 checked out the hotel pool, nice.  Did some boat errands, paperwork, another swim for Millie (she loves it here) and cooked up spaghetti on board.

Mon. 2/19 swim @ the pool, did a grocery run vis a vis our bikes, and chef Alice cooked up a fabulous meal of chicken parmesan and roasted Brussels sprouts - oh yeah.

Tues. 2/20 took Millie to the vet to get her cleared to go to the Bahamas if we have an opportunity to get over there.

Mailed a international letter at the post office; that took a while because they are grossly understaffed ; it was as bad as our most recent experience in Key West.   After a conference call, we met a group of Loopers at the Florida Keys Steak & Lobster for Jim's Birthday.  It was a fun time but I have to say there is something about this town where they have an aversion to updating 'their look'; real old school.

Happy Birthday Jim!
  

Post dinner Alice and I got a tour of a Krogen Express 52. It's one of those dream boats but above our pay grade type of thing; we really enjoyed checking to out.
