Oh so many things I can’t remember
And way too many things I can’t forget
What time does church begin? Tell the priest I’m checking in
I want to cleanse my soul so I can do it again and again and again and again

I saw him a week ago. He signed my Livingston Montana hat. We had a little visit. Then when I left the Casa on Tuesday, the van driver was an 82 year old man, named Manny, who was the first person Capt. Tony ever met in Key West. He said the Capt. would call him up and they would go fishing.

I camped out at Tony's last weekend. My favorite Key West bar also. While I was hanging out with Tony he told me he still owned 25% of the place and they would get the rest if/when he ever keels over.

Capt. Tony's was on the Travel Channel on a show about the most haunted places in America. Has anyone seen a ghostie or anything there? I know for SURE that Lafitte's in New Orleans is haunted. In fact, New Orleans is loaded with ghosties. :P

:pirate: Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop and Capt. Tony's, a must for any pirate/parrothead. Had a great time at Capt. Tony's every trip to Key West from 1986 to 2004, 4 trips, and sitting at Lafitte's our 1 visit in 02, lit only by candles, watching the waitress serve drinks in the street to carriage riders, while a guitarist played songs about islands and pirates, was one of the best evenings we've ever had.

I don't know about Capt. Tony's, but take some pictures inside of Lafitte's....see what comes out, or who!!!! :o You'll probably get more (when the pictures get developed) than you bargained for. Next year, I'm taking my "spooky" pictures at Capt. Tony's and see if that ghostie woman shows up on them! :roll:
