The weather in the Florida Keys was beautiful. Everyday felt like we were in paradise. But that did not keep us from doing our boat chores. Every morning was dedicated to a specific project on the boat. And then, the afternoons were open for exploring. We would snorkel or swim or bike ride somewhere. The first pic shows us on the old 7-mile bridge built by Henry Flagler. It is open about half-way across the bridge. But, due to disrepair, the State of Florida plans to close the bridge around August of this year—forever. We felt lucky to be able to travel across this historic structure. The next pic shows an iguana. These critters are invasive exotics that have displaced some of the native species, so, the locals consider them a pest. We saw them everywhere we went on the islands. Finally, our dock neighbors on Snow Goose, Joe and Trina, were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. Along with their family, the boating community also helped them celebrate.
