My saturday nights have become routine. A good routine. Bobby Nesbitt!
Bobby entertains saturday evenings at Tavern ‘n Town. He has long been a favorite of mine. Going back at least 20 years.
Lately, I have been having dinner at Tavern ‘n Town saturday evenings just to hear Bobby.
I grab a couple of newspapers on the way in. Find a corner bar seat. Have a couple of drinks and dinner and read the newspapers. All the while enjoying Nesbitt at his best. I generally quietly sing along with him. I can be multi-faceted.
The bar was packed last night. A noisy crowd. Mostly tourists. I thought how sad they do not take a few minutes to quiet down and give Bobby time to enrich their souls with his singing.
I was reading saturday’s Keynoter. A twice a week local publication. On the editorial page, there was an old photo. Jack Williams’ Saloon at 101 Simonton. Back around 1890. The sign in the window said…..Draft Beer 5 cents.
No more 5 cent beers. No more Jack Williams’ Saloon.
I discovered a great article on Key West female foot attire in the Keynoter. Written by Leah Maki. She is a blogger and claims to be a fashion obsessed one. I enjoyed her column. I am adding her blog to my list of must reads. LeahsFabulousFinds.com.
The article was titled…..Find Your Keys Sole. Her knowledge and writing style caught my fancy. A discovery!
Five beauties walked into the bar at one point. Knockouts! Absolutely beautiful! Just passed the age of consent. One wore a sash saying Miss Centaro. They walked in smartly. Saw the bar was crowded and walked out just as smartly. I was disappointed.
I ran Centaro through the internet. I could not determine which Centaro the sash applied to. There were tons of them.
Cindy came by and gave me a kiss. Cindy is a casual Key West friend. Looked devastating in a black pants outfit.
Today’s Key West Citizen has on its front page with both a large picture and title, an iguana story. Iguanas are all over out island. My rear deck and front yard, roadways, the golf course, where ever you go. They are stoic. They generally sit and face the sun. They fear humans not. You can walk right up to one and the iguana will not flinch.
I dislike iguanas. They eat my shrubbery and flowers. Defecate in my pool and on the deck. I am not the only one who has no love for them. Most do not.
The Citizen article had a subtitle…..The Rats of the Reptile Kingdom. Says it all.
Interestingly, iguanas are considered good eating. In Central and South America. Not here. Though some have tried iguana. It supposedly tastes like chicken. I cannot envision myself indulging!
I spent my daytime yesterday researching next week’s column for KONK Life. I am getting a head start on the column this week. It will be about politics. I think I may title it Politics As Usual. It will begin with Eric Cantor’s recent defeat and go from there.
The Second Annual Key Lime Festival is July 3-5. Typical of Key West, it starts with a bar crawl on July 3. Spelled in this instance K R A W L. Pink lime martinis and margaritas the featured drinks.
Enjoy your sunday!
Lou, who was the Sloan that you were waiting for last night? Not Sloan Bashinsky bc he told me he doesn’t know you. What Sloan? And did he show up?
Sloan is a “she” and yes she showed up.
Your Sloan who did show show is a ‘she’? I have never known a ‘she’ with first name Sloan. Are you sure this Sloan is a ‘she’? I rather figured that you would not be hanging out with the other Key West Sloan (Bashinsky). Though you are both former attorneys, your blog styles are completely different. Yours are clean, and Sloan’s are ever so dirty. ha.
