The Big 10 Years!

Well, Joel and I have made it to 10 years! It was our anniversary this last week. We were lucky to be able to celebrate it in Key West and Naples, FL for a few days. We had a wonderful time. I was surprised to find out that Key West has no beaches! It is mostly just rocky by the ocean. But it is gorgeous. It would have been better if we were there to get wasted, as I am pretty sure that is what everyone else was doing, or to go fishing and snorkeling. We didn't have the time to do that, but it would have been fun!
We did eat yummy food at Hog's Breath and, well we mostly walked around, ate, checked out Ernest Hemmingway's home (which was very interesting),checked out the amazing trees, ate some more, made friends with Israeli store keepers, laughed at the crazy cat man who did a cat trick show at Mallory Square, and admired the gorgeous trees and roosters who hung out everywhere. I have to say I was expecting knock your socks off Key Lime pie, but it seemed to be just average wherever we tried it. It was disapointing. However, we did end the trip with a gorgeous sunset in Naples, FL. I decided if I ever become a millionaire, I will live there.

Joel I love you and these 10 crazy years we've shared together. Through all the ups and downs you have kept your promise in making me laugh every day!

Gorgeous!


We came back twice for this Hog's Breathe pulled pork sandwich! It was amazing. So was the shrimp ceviche!





More yummy seafood!

Hemmingway cats. These are actual relatives of the orignial cats that lived on his property. He thought they were good luck.


Why did the rooster cross the road?


Awesome tree.
