I wanted to get a few snapshots posted of our recent cross-country jaunt in support of Dustin & Stacie's wedding:
This is our plane we flew from Fort Myers to Key West. That's 8 seats including the pilot! Yes, that nose cone is painted like a shark and the door opens in front of Ernest Hemingway's floating head.
No kidding, this was the view from Corey's seat as we came into Key West. Our "carry on" luggage was securely stored in the wings for this flight.
The Cemetery was very interesting, due to lack of space they've come to resemble the crypts and catacombs in New Orleans. This is a memorial set up to the veterans of the 1868 Cuban revolution. (Key West is closer to Havana than it is to Miami.)
A good, healthy breakfast at the Southernmost Bar before the beach wedding ceremony. (From L) Corey, Ryan, Kenny, and groom Dustin.
While we were tooling around the island on a borrowed moped on Monday night (after we missed our return flight [that's another story!]) Janwyn and I found this Conch Shell outside of the Key West High School. And yes, it's listed as the World's Largest:

That is an amazingly sweet airplane!
That's not quite what we thought when we boarded. Janwyn asked me, "isn't that a Cessna?" I said I think so. She replied, "Don't Cessna's crash?" "Only occasionally on landings" I said.
One of my coworkers thought it would be sweet if the door was actually Ernest's mouth. That would've added to the experience!
