A week before school starts, we left the house to MBK and company and went to see Grandma Lachance in Florida. She had a project for us...

Much to my surprise, Laurie spirited me off to Little Palm Island, in Key West, as a 50th birthday present. After a 15 minute ride aboard the Eisenhower, we arrive at Sunset Pier. The 5 acre island has 15 bungalos, with chaises and hammocks at every turn. The pool is overhung with trees, and the Zen garden fountain was outside our window. We overlooked and dined on the beach.

Inside, the mosquitop netting , like the bath tiles, is decorative. The outdoor shower was terriff. Nonelectric entertainment is prevalent. "Do nothing" is the operative phrase.
