The “Duval Crawl” is famous. People from all over the world come to Key West and drink at the bars both on and off Duval Street. There are even shore excursions from cruise ships offered to do the crawl. Although, I don’t understand why you would need a tour guide […]

You know how sometimes you just know what is going to happen? Yet you trudge ahead, ignoring the warning signs? This weekend, we decided to have lunch at Bistro 245 at the Westin. I still have some buy-one-get-one-free places on my Woman’s Club Restaurant Card, which expires in June, so […]
Along the harbor in Key West lie several eateries and bars. For whatever reason, I have never eaten at the Schooner Wharf. Last weekend, I was inspired to do just that. After a morning of tennis, we hopped on our bikes and headed to harbor. Schooner Wharf is ubiquitously Key […]
There are places I walk by all the time and never go to. Why? I have no idea. There is something that just doesn’t inspire me. Square One is one of those places. There is no good reason for it, I just had never been there before last weekend. But, […]
I love getting feedback from readers (even when I’m told I have no idea what I am talking about.) I have received a few emails recently that I’d like to share with you. If you have a question or comment that you want answered in a future mailbag, please email […]

When my friends told me about Orchid Key Bar, in the Orchid Key Hotel, I was stunned. A hotel bar? That locals frequent? Are you kidding? Apparently not. From the street you would never even know it exists. Tucked away, through the parking lot and next to the pool is […]
Boondocks is one of those places I always drive by, but don’t stop at because it is generally inconvenient to where I am going: Key West. Located at Mile Marker 27.5, it is generally further than I am willing to go when there is an event there, or I am […]
I could also title this Why I Like Underwear. I am not a curmudgeon, a prude or a stick in the mud. I like to have fun as much as anybody. Really, I write a travel blog – that means I travel. A lot. For fun. That being said, let […]
I had an interesting weekend, which seemed to encompass the entire life cycle in two short days. (Cue Baby Simba being presented to the entire animal kingdom here.) We started in Key West on Saturday morning, after driving down a slew of IKEA cabinets from the mainland on Friday. Following […]
