The Sun Sets . . . For Now

It got harder to leave Key West each time we did it. This should be the last batch of pictures from our Happy Place until we get a chance to make the trip again. We've already decided that when we lose the house, we're making our way down there to be homeless at the south end of Route A1A. Above - Sunset from Mallory Square.

Our 2002 trip had to be pushed back from October to December, thanks to work stuff, but it was cool to see the visual juxtaposition of Christmas decorations and tropical foliage. [Maris]'s shots!

Until we meet again, La Mer...

Sunset #2 - Mallory Square.

Schooner Liberty returning from its sunset cruise.

Mallory Square's daily Sunset Celebration is part boardwalk, part craft show, part street theater and all party. Above, legendary Will Soto prepares to start his long-running tightrope/juggling daredevil extravaganza (as seen from the Schooner Western Union).

Key West's waterfront, from Mallory Square to Fort Zachary Taylor Park.

Under full sail on the Western Union. Perfection at sea.
