Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  Headed to Key West again today.  The art show is going on right now on Whitehead Street.  It took forever to get down there because of a biking event going on today.  Not sure where they bike from, but the destination is Key West and they were strung out all along Hwy. 1, along with support staff giving out water, food, etc. To make matters worse, the two-lane west-bound lane narrowed down to one lane and traffic was backed up for several miles. We finally made it through and worked our way through Old Town and parked at the Eco Center and headed over to Whitehead.  Browsed around the various booths for a while.  These people are so clever, talented and artistic.  Left the art show and walked up Duval, stopping at The Bull.  Yankee Jack was playing there, so we had a couple of drinks and listened to him for a while.  Had an early dinner at Charlie Mac’s.  We both had a big bowl of Brunswick Stew which is hard to find outside of Georgia.  And it was really good!  Walked back to our parking spot at the Eco Center and watched the racing crews getting all their racing yachts ready to be hauled away.  This is a big staging area during race week.  A pretty nice day today.  71 was the high. 

These paintings are all framed in  wood from lobster/crab traps.
