Wonderful Ride!

Except...the turnpike took away the sign to Key West, and closed a couple of ramps, so I ended up in a not-so-nice section of Miami!

I finally got directions back to I95 from the only one who looked as though he could speak English...a Louis Farrakhan look-alike(complete with weird BOW TIE) who was giving out newspapers on the corner. He directed me back to 95 which just ENDED and became Route 1 in Biscayne Bay. Then there was a huge traffic snarl due to an accident. I scooted off Rt 1 and headed west to homestead, finding the Turnpike and proceeded to the Keys. It was on the 20 mile straight that goes through the Mangroves that i saw the sign “CROCODILES CROSSING”. That just made me laugh.

When i got to my destination, we all went for a swim, had a few beers and some shrimp, and then I went home.

The return trip was uneventful.

The Irish part of me burns, and the Indian part of me tans, so I now have a lovely, painful tan.

What a GREAT Day!

I guess I’m not happy unless I am “overcoming” something!
