Hey Reader, It's Throwback Tuesday, and today I'm wading into a topic that can get a LITTLE controversial in Key West... Cruise ships. 🚢🌴 People have opinions. STRONG opinions. 😂 Some people love seeing the ships come into port and all those visitors getting their first little taste of Key West. Others would happily wave goodbye to every giant ship sailing away from the island. But whether you're arriving on one, watching one pull into port, or trying to figure out why Duval suddenly seems a...

Hey Reader, Well, here we go again... We're on the road! 🚗🌴 This time we're heading to Orlando for another conference. Yep. Another one. Apparently I've decided that if there's something new to learn about social media, digital content, growing a business, or finding better ways to share all things Key West and the Florida Keys... I need to know about it. 😂 And I have to tell you, I'm having so much fun learning all of this. There's always something new to try, a different way to tell a...

Hey Reader, It's Throwback Tuesday, and today we're talking about one of my favorite sounds in Key West... Live music drifting out of an open bar. 🎶🌴 You know the moment. You're walking down the street. You have somewhere you're supposed to be. And then you hear a band playing and somebody says... “Wait. Let's go in here.” And just like that, the plans change. 😂 👉 Check out my guide to the Best Live Music in Key West here:https://funinkeywest.com/best-live-music-in-key-west/ Key West Is Made...

Hey Reader, I'm back! And I have to tell you... I didn't get a whole lot of Fun in Key West work done this week. But my brain? FULL. 😂 I spent the week at a conference learning, listening, taking notes, and coming up with approximately 472 new ideas for things I want to try. Okay, maybe not 472. But it feels like it. So many of the ideas had me thinking about Fun in Key West... new ways to create content, tell stories, share more of the Florida Keys, and make this whole little community even...

Hey Reader, It's Throwback Tuesday, and I have a confession... I am really NOT this creative. 😂 I love my Bullet Journal. I love making lists. I love checking things OFF those lists. But then I see the gorgeous packing lists people create with colorful pens, washi tape, little drawings and perfectly organized boxes... And mine suddenly looks a little sad. 😄 👉 Check out these 27 Bullet Journal Packing Lists & Travel Planning Ideas here:https://funinkeywest.com/bullet-journal-packing-list/ I...

Hey Reader, I am SCRAMBLING to get everything done this week because... I'm hitting the road! 🚗🍂 By the time you're reading this, I should be somewhere along the way to New Hampshire, where I'm heading for a conference. I've never been to New Hampshire, so I'm really looking forward to exploring a completely different part of the country. And yes... I did have to double-check that New Hampshire is, in fact, part of New England. 😂 So much to learn. So little time. You know how it is when you...

Hey Reader, It's Throwback Tuesday, and today we're talking about my favorite meal of the day... BREAKFAST. ☕🥞🍳 I love food in general, but when I'm traveling? Breakfast just hits differently.

Hey Reader, Have you ever started one little home project... And somehow it turned into SIX home projects? 😂 That's where we are right now. We found a great deal on a gazebo for the back patio. The plan was pretty simple: finally give Kevin a little home for the grill and pizza oven. Easy, right? Nope. Before we could put up the gazebo, we decided we should probably fix the patio. So now we're pulling up pavers, leveling everything, and pouring a concrete slab. And since we're doing THAT......
