Key West - Schooner Wharf for dinner

 

Open-air entertainment, typical of Key West - with a gravel floor

Yet another perfect day in paradise with temps in the high 70s, light winds, and no rain. I finished an article for Waterway Guide on anchoring out in Key West and Ann painted all day. I’ll do a blog of just her paintings in the next day or so. 

You may see a few chickens roosted in nearby trees while dining

We had wine on the back of the boat and then walked over to Schooner Wharf for dinner and music. The start of any dinner in Key West begins with conch fritters so of course we had some. We got there around 6:00 and got a table with no problem but by the time we left, the place was packed. 

I had fish and chips and Ann had seafood tacos, both were good. We were about 10 feet from the band and it was a little loud for us, more so for Ann since I can’t hear anything anyway. One thing about having a hearing aid, you sure can sleep well at night - no noises to keep you awake!

Saturday is the once a year art festival in Key West but this year it’s down by Truman Park, too far to walk so we’ll try the bus for the first time this year. We’ve been avoiding the bus due to covid concerns so we’ll try a less crowded time early in the morning. Ann loves to meet the artists and “talk shop”.
