Well,,,, we weren't until,,,, last week we didn't even know we could because of Deborahs work. Soo it's was a last minuit deal. We've been flying by the seat of our pants too, (staying wherever we think we'll want too as we go). So far we've made plans up to Monday night in KeyWest not sure if we'll stay there more than one night or what? From there who knows ...

Annette doesn't like riding in heavy rain either; and I'm not a big fan of it myself, even though it's not nearly as nerve racking as it was about 10 year ago. Be safe!!

Wet roads increase the odds against a MC rider arriving at his/her destination safely. I won't ride in rain unless I have to.

We were soaked when we got here, but we made it.
We all went downtown for dinner, then over to Duvall St. Sun should come out tomorrow.

I love Key West! It's a fun place to visit. Do one of the sunset sails if you can... they are well worth it. If you like history and have the time, go check out Dry Tortugas State Park. It's a full day trip, but really neat to se once(it's a civil war fort out in the middle of the ocean). I have some other suggestions, but not sure what you're looking for.

We finally made it here(KeyWest) Monday afternoon. Weather is beautiful today, already making plans to stay an additional night. We'll be leaving Wednesday, hate that we didn't see anyone from the Nomad Nation down here...

I want to get back home on Saturday so I have a day to rest before going back to work. We (Me, Crystal and Gene) should be in Sardis Friday afternoon. I'm not sure what route Ray plans on taking home. If you and Bea have something you need to do don't wait around on us. Just let me know. Your are still planning to come to Greenwood the following weekend aren't you? We're looking forward to your visit.
