We're still at Peninsular Marina today, going to Key West tomorrow.

Peninsular Marina, so-called because it's located on Peninsula Avenue, is in the Boca Chica channel, but actually on Stock Island. It was pretty much destroyed by hurricane Wilma years ago and has been purchased to build a very expensive "dockominium" complex. It looks loike a dump today, but after they put $100 mil. into it, it will really look nice, and it's located just 5 miles or so from Key West. The problem is that the rest of Stock Island is also a dump. It's solid trailer parks and hurricane damaged fishing piers. There's no place worth walking to, so we got a rental car for 2 days. Key West, on the other hand, is quite upscale and nice homes, even without waterfront property are priced in 7 figures. Ouch!

Kathy bought me a Pina Colada mix and I have been making Pina Coladas with the blender that Stephen got us for Christmas. It's an absolutely kick-ass belnder that makes great frozen drinks with nice uniform crushed ice. It's fun to use something that works so well. Also, Pina Coladas seem so appropriate for the Keys and the usual 80 degree temps, palm trees and island surroundings.
Fixer-upper boat! This old scow is sitting at our marina, and it appears that somebody is working on it. However, it was a steel boat and in many places in the superstructure has rusted clear through. Even after it's been fixed, I would not want to go to sea in that boat.
