Any time we can take September Song down to Key West and spend a few days with Doug and Tammy, we are there!
We left Marathon on March 1st and put the pointy end South to Key West. Once we are out of the channel, September Song knows the way. We arrived mid afternoon in Key West, and Doug and Tammy arrived not long after. Let the party begin! First stop, after stowing their stuff and a welcome back together again drink, we headed to Schooners for some of those best wings in the Keys. The reason the four of us were in Key West, other than we love to go there together and play, is that the Massacoustics were in town for four days playing at our favorite bar, The Smokin' Tuna. They were so great to see again. They are from Massachusetts and Nashville, and have a huge following. People fly, cruise (that be us), and drive to where ever they are playing. They have a big group in Canada that have parties while watching them on the Tuna cam. In Canada!
They are so good!
Saturday, Steve (AKA the DD) Kim, Jay, Nancy, William, and Judy drove our van down to meet up with us in the Key Weird Playpen. What a fun day. I will let the pictures tell that story. Also, I have proof on film that drinking tequila makes your clothes fall off. No, none of our group........that I can show you.
After three days of great fun, and hitting many places too numerous to mention, we headed out for Marathon on Sunday morning. NOT! We made our turn into Hawk Channel, and the waves were breaking over the bow. (our bow is 11 foot off the water) We made the hardest maneuver a cruiser makes, do a 180 and head back to port. We stayed in port Sunday, (stayed on the boat. We needed a day off) and it was a good thing, because a front came through with 45+ MPH winds, and we would have been out in the middle of it if we hadn't turned back.
Monday, we left around 10:00 and had a pony ride back to Marathon, Not real bad, but no fun in 4 to 6 foot seas.
We arrived at our dock with lots of our friends there to catch lines because of the wind, and sweet William with a Captain and Coke in hand for me after we got tied up.
All in all, it was another fun three days with cruising friends, great food, too many drinks, and fantastic music.
September Song (AGAIN?!) out

A few spring breakers were in town. You will see more of this girl latter.
Jeff was taken with Judy's beauty, so he invited her to come up on stage. His ex-wife, Nancy, (not really, I don't think) was with us and Jeff thought Judy could be his next. (Where's William in all this?)
I think she likes him! Well, at the end of the song, William went up to the stage, sang a song to Judy, and all is well with William and Judy. Judy, How did he know yours and Nancy's names?
