Morning View: Island House Key West

Yesterday I arrived in Key West for my eighth (maybe ninth) annual holiday stay at the fabulous Island House. The joint was jumping last night but things are rather sedate at the moment due to the hour and a bit of warm rain. On Thursday I’ll be attending the book launch party for Ending Anita, our own Father Tony Adams’ recounting of how two Key West bartenders became the first in Florida to win a same-sex marriage lawsuit. I’ve already run into a few JMG readers here at Island House (shout-out to the guys from Memphis and Brighton) so if you’re in town feel free to stop by this week’s poolside blogging station and say hello!
