Whoops forgot to add. Yes, the Schooner Western Union is out for repairs. We have ridden on it and was a blast. In February we took the Hindu out for a sunset cruise. A very nice 85 year old schooner that has been lovingly restored. The crew is great and hopefully on your voyage you'll have Captain ...

First thing is to probably check the other thread going on with suggestions for Key West. I would recommend the Tales and Trails tour, it is very good and will give you some more info behind some of the places that you otherwise might just walk on by. Tim is full of Jimmy info.

If I remember right I thought it had to do with the woman that had the victorian home on Caroline Street. The one that has the woman mannequin in the tower, that is now a bed and breakfast. This would be a good question for the guy that gives the "Trails of Margaritaville" tour that starts...

You might try the Helmsley Middletowne. Not sure of their rates but we used to stay there when we worked for a company that had an office in NYC. The rates were pretty good then.

Nascar Cafe at Universal would be good for the Daytona 500, but get there early. Race starts at 3:00 - 3:15. If you have time cruise up to Daytona during the race and even just hear the cars running around the track. There is a real good little bar and restaurant east of the Speedway a couple of mil...

For the top name first run broadway shows there is a little known secret to getting cheap tickets. On the day of the show go to the theater box office when it opens up, usually 10 am. They sell standing room tickets for usually $30 - $45 each. Normally you can only buy 1 or 2 per person. The area wh...

Yes, there was a Yellow Hertz truck with Tenn. license plates backed up to the side sliding door. There was a sign in the front window of the truck: Working in the Studio I cruised by yesterday afternoon and the truck was gone and no activity around the studio. Except for the people walking by that ...

I said, Hi Mac who you doing Typo, right? :lol: :lol: :lol: Anyway, that's a great story. I hope (and I'm sure) you had fun in Key West. I live in Iowa too, and hope to see you at Alpine this year.

Thanks Tiki!!! Yes, I do have my Harley down here also. Just like up in Milwaukee. Ilo was a very nice young man.

The seaplane ride out to the Dry Tortugas is great, a little pricey ($229 per person, went up some from when we did it) but worth it. Take off by land from the Key West airport and then land on the water at the Fort. Great views all along the way. Can see turtles and sharks swimming in the waters be...
