For those of you that are new
with my letters let me explain one thing: Everything I say is true except
those parts that are lies.
The book for this week was
'The Secrets of Key West Reveled' by Eden Entertainment Limited. I enjoyed the
book. You can see some of it at www.TrueSecretsOf.com.
This week Jo and I started
working upstairs. She wants to paint and put down new carpet. We removed all
the furniture from the upstairs front bed room and ripped out the carpet. The
floor (pressed board) under the old window air conditioner was shot. (There is
always something with these old houses). We now have replaced the flooring and
painted the room and are talking about what type of floor covering to put
down.
The weather is wonderful: high
70's in the day with lots of sunshine and high 60's at night. Oops: The cold
front moving thru the north finally got down to Key West. It was 58 degrees
this morning but expected to get to the high 60's by this afternoon.
Pat Croce, the former
president and minority owner of the Philadelphia 76ers of the National
Basketball Association, has purchased what was the home of Key West Aloe at
524 Front St. from Frank Romano and Joe Liszka. The island that was once home
to pirates will soon have its very own pirate museum.
The Key West Polar Bear Club
had it's annual meeting. The ice was broken and put in drinks and then
everyone jumped into the heated pool.
