Good evening everyone! SLR Regios and pour'N. Record heat and humidity in S FL. Typical summer day. Time to send my annual Thank You note to the descendants of Willis Carrier.

Too bad that place is 1300 miles from Key West. Inside bears a slight resemblance to Sloppy Joe's on Duval St. Where Hemingway DID NOT hang out. The original Sloppy Joe's where Hemingway hung out from 1933-37 is now "Capt. Tony's", on Greene St. Capt Tony Tarracino was a true character in his own right. He would sit at the front door of the bar and chat with his customers like he knew them his whole life. I have video of he and I yakking up a storm about when Jimmy Buffet played there in the early 70s just for tips. Shortly before he passed in 2008 he sold the bar to a dentist from Plantation FL. Hasn't been the same since.
907 Whitehead St. Key West, FL. Been there to see those cats.
Was there on my honeymoon 23 years ago June 1. Observed some kitties while touring Mr. Hemingway residence, though I did not get a chance to count their toes. Had I done so, I bet they would have had six toes, at least that is what I would imagine them to have.
