Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf
Key, FL: Headed up to Marathon this morning. When we came down
here on December 1 we noticed a very historic Ozark Airlines plane at the Marathon Airport. We know someone who used to pilot one of
these back in the day, so we wanted to take a picture of it. Stopped at the Stuffed Pig for breakfast
first. A really good breakfast and two
mimosas later we continued on to the airport.
They have two or three historic planes there on the tarmac or in one of
the hangars. The plane is now privately
owned and still flies. Left there and
headed back—stopping at Sunshine Key RV Park to see some friends of ours from Door County, Wisconsin. They’re down here 6 months and back in Wisconsin for 6 month—have been doing
that for over 27 years. They own a
couple of restaurants we used to frequent up there. As we drove back it was getting cloudier and
cloudier. On the way up, the water on
both the bay side and ocean side was dead calm.
Now there are white caps. Guess
the front is coming through. Mid 80s on
the way up, mid-70s on the way back.
