Happy Turkey Day

I'm off to Ft Lauderdale today to pick up my friend Alan at the airport and drive him back down to the Key's for a weeks holiday....

TIKI Turkey Dinner - Great Idea....

Love the BBC

Key West Cemetery 1847

The cemetery was built on the highest point of Key West - Solaris Hill - after the original cemetery at Higgs Beach was washed away in the great hurricane of 1846....

There are 10,000 plots in the Key West Cemetery - and at last count there were over 70,000 people buried there - How does that work you ask??...

Well over the years the graves just disintegrate and if the families don't keep them up somehow other people get buried in the now "abandoned" plots - Mostly in vaults built over the 'empty' ground

As I walked around today the ground was wavy with abandoned graves where the stones and markers were completely gone - ready for the new tenants....

You realize that when this sign went up those pesky Catholics could NOT be buried with 'Proper' people - (or was it the other way around?)


LOVE the Barbie in a conch shell.... (and of course the fact that this family still cares after 50 years)

Going Going.....

Vacancy....

When in doubt just pour raw concrete into the colapsing hole... ICK

Ready for a new owner ~~

Of course that's just for the Christians - the JEWS keep their neighborhood up real nice...

Some of the Wildlife of Key West 11/14/08

"Can you see my pussy now!!"

We went to La Te Da last night to see Leslie Jordan - the show was amazing and we did not stop laughing for two hours - GO SEE IT if you can...



After a crazy two hours (the boy can move) he was still gracious and took time to meet everyone (and sell them books)


I asked Leslie to sign this in my book......

This little treat Leslie added on his own - I LOVE him....

Brother Boy and I

Leslie Jordan and Me at the Key West Police Childrens / Business Guild fundraiser - He was VERY nice....
