This old pipe was placed here in World War Two to being water to the expanded Navy Base in Key West. Prior to it's arrival alongside the new motor highway across the islands, people lived by cisterns and some of us still have them in our homes.
My wife and I were out enjoying a brisk afternoon breeze this weekend and I figured this was the spot to be, close by Bahian Honda.
It was as pretty as a picture postcard, a view of which I never tire, summer or winter.
Cheyenne was happy too, and that's always a good thing.
There has been so much traffic on Highway One for Easter weekend it has quite reminded me of winter snowbird season. I wasn't ready to be inundated, but once again it seems the Lower keys are benefiting from the tourist dollar at a time when the newspaper says the rest of Florida isn't necessarily doing as well. The good fortine of the Florida Keys never seems to grow less.
