Alright. So the title makes it sound way more exciting than it was. Last week E and I took a week long vacation to Key West, Florida. Reviving the time-tested tradition of going on holiday to recover from something bad seemed like a really good idea, and our friends and family agreed. So we got online and found a package we could afford, and off we went.
Key West is a great vacation spot. For real. Not only is it a chance to experience Caribbean Island life without a passport or anti-malarials, it seems to have some fun for everyone. There is beautiful blue water and some nice beaches on the southwest end...
Places of historical and literary significance...
And kosher sealife that can be enjoyed with or without swim fins.
(That's a Jewfish, BTW)
All in all, we got some much needed rest in a beautiful place.
Now, I'm sure some are asking the big question. Did it have yarn? Yes, it did have yarn. I knitted most of a Mingus sock while I was there. To bad I didn't get a Yarn Harlot-esque beach picture of that. There was one yarn store on the island, and I spent a whopping $40.00 there. One one skein. In my defense, it was souvenir yarn and it was Tilli Tomas Rock Star in an excellent shade of red. To bad don't have a picture of that, either.

I loved the Keys MB! When I was there I stayed at the Doubletree. Can't wait to go back! (Ernest Hemingway's 6-toed cats were the cutest!)
I'm so sorry we missed you! And by just a few days...
