Keys Trip in review

I went down to Key Largo this weekend and my friends were gracious enough to let me stay with them. Friday I went scuba diving at Molasses Reef. Some people are better off not scuba diving in the morning and I’m one of them. Still I got to see a lot of wildlife – eels, sea turtles, fishes galore, Portuguese  Man-o-war, and a big stingray.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Saturday we went to Key West Naval Air Station and watched the Blue Angels perform. We had a bit of an issue at breakfast because all the air ran out of one of the Jeep’s tires. Joel changed the tire with the skill of someone who’d had to do that before. When we got to the base we walked around all the static displays, watched some performers, and Kim recruited medical people for camp. The UV index was 11 which evidently is high enough to fry sunscreen right off you. I wish I’d remembered my hat!

Sunday we had a potluck at the church and went sailing before evening services. After services Chris arrived and we played Super Smash Bros. Brawl until we couldn’t see straight. Another victory for Das Ubermousen! It was great.

 

 

Monday I heard a strange noise like someone building a bridge outside. When I got up and looked out the window I saw I was wrong – they weren’t building a bridge, they were building the river. I figured that was as good a reason as I needed to play some more smash bros. They had a nice steel plate they laid over it so cars could get by.
