Key West for a few days. Hemingway.

In town with friends for the 44th Hemingway Look alike Festival at Sloppy Joes. Any forum members down, and competing?

I think it may be hot there this time of year. Maybe sea breezes help?

Key West for a few days. Hemingway.

We’re planning a trip down there for maybe January or February. You can fly there from Orlando on Allegient Airlines. We wouldn’t want to drive.

Looking forward to it. We’ve never been there before.

So cool.

I’ve tried to read Him multiple times and can never get past all the detail. Maybe when I’m fully retired I’ll give him another try
