Key West - Day 3

At the marina. Going to the Fort Jefferson in the Dry Tortugas today! This picture is of random boats at the marina, will post one of the Yankee Freedom later. Going dark now - no service out there. The Dry Tortugas did not disappoint! And left for home the next morning. Great mini vacay!

Key West - Day 2

Best Shrimp & Grits, the Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup appetizer was good too at the Firefly Restaurant. Visited the Harry Truman Little White House and did the tour. Fascinating look into his time in Key West. The Key West Firehouse Museum was closed due to Covid, but there were a few interesting displays outside. And before our lunch break we got a visit in at the Key West Cemetery. It’s above ground similar to New Orleans. And finally, seen at dinner from the balcony at the Bagatelle Restaurant. A rooster in a tree.

Broken Finger

Here's what my finger looks like after a week. I did go to the orthopedic. He numbed it up and twisted it back so it's sort of straight.

Yowchies!! Ghost Wolf broke my finger! Went outside with him, and he bolted. The leash wrapped around my finger and twisted and broke it.
