Wordless Wednesday..Key West In Pictures

I often wonder if I'm one of the crazy ones that sometimes has to be forced to go away on vacation. Let's face it, there's never a good time. Meeting people and friends In Key West, listening to singer songwriters that converged for the "Meeting of the Minds" week, was good to take my mind off of the sadness of putting my Shadow to sleep the day before I left. I mean, how can you not smile at hundreds of happy parrot heads right?

Key West is one of those places that can be like a mini laid back Vegas if you hang on Duval St...or another vacation of sorts if you hang at the beach, go snorkeling, diving, or deep sea fishing. If you mix the both..well better yet. Anyway..so much for my wordlessness...lol. Here are some pictures I took this trip around.

Mango Tree Inn

Mallory Square

U.S. 1, O Mile Marker beginning at Whitehead St, Key West

Of course you have to do SOME touristy things

Anyone have a dollar I can borrow??

I thought this mossy tree was cool looking

I started taking another picture but ended up taking this instead..any ideas what it is??

This was the shot I was aiming for..but was distracted by the texture in the above photo.

Oh..and here was what the abstract picture was of..the railing.

Cool shots. For what ever reason I had the best latte in some out of the way lunch place when we spent a couple of nights there.

wow, your post was emotional for me. One of my former agents who passed away 4 years ago loved Key West, made me think about him. Nice memories of a past visit and love your photos.

Not exactly wordless, Cindy, but the photos were enjoyable.

Key West is still on my bucket list. I had reservations at a neat little inn there a few years back. That was before I know when hurricane season threatens that area. When the first storm threatened, I said, “Aw, shucks, it will be gone before we get there.” When the second storm threatened I said, “Well, I am sure we will be all right”. When the third storm blustered its way into existence and head that way I said, “Please cancel my reservations”.

I have not made it there but I will some day.

Awesome pictures Cindy and I am happy to hear you got some distraction! The texture picture is def. interesting but I have no clou .. please do share!

P.S. I love the rooster-pic but I had to laugh-out-loud. Look at the sign in the back, Vogel - State Attorney. Vogel is the German word for bird. What a coincidence. :-)
