Just got word that an old acquaintance is retiring. He's moving from Key West to Arizona. Providing my Doctor gives me the ok tomorrow I think we'll go down to the Schooner Wharf and hear him play one more time. My wife has had a running "friendly feud" with him for years. Here's a bit written about him. https://soul-of-keywest.com/michael-mccloud/ .

We'll also be there on Sunday morning at the cab driver end of the bar. That's a great place to hear stories about what happened on Saturday night. Cab drivers know it all.

Sounds like a very cool dude. I liked his 3-types of music groups.

I think it is Miller time!

My Family headed down to Key West today, my sister’s friend’s band from R.I. is playing down there. I was invited but have too much going on.
May try to get the S out this weekend if I get a chance.

Good work David, that extra work sounds about right for the design of that doorway. I hope you are happy with the product itself, my wife really likes the one we got, it feels pretty good and works as designed.

Where are they playing? What's the bands name? Maybe we'll see them. Key West is a small place with some great venues.

The Parrot is our favorite bar in Key West. Always a great music venue.
