This weekend in Islamorada: the Chamber’s 19th annual free-admission Island Fest!
Music. Rum. Art. Smoked Fish Dip. Kites. Sailboat rides. Sandcastles. All will be a blast.
Nothing will compare, however, to the Giant Human Hamster Ball. I’m not entirely sure what that is, but I do know that I am going to either break it or set some kind of record in it.
More info is here, or click on the below. Hope to see you there!
I’m not a technology newbie. I worked at the world’s first commercial internet service provider. Ran meetings with the geniuses running the core backbones of the internet. Dragged spectrum analyzers to the tops of mountains in foreign countries.
But for some reason I am still fascinated by the idea that some guy in the middle of nowhere can stick a camera under his boat and beam live video of fish he likes to anyone, anywhere, anytime. The stream below mesmerizes me, and though I’m not entirely sure why, I don’t think it’s just because I like sushi.
From this site:
“This cam is live in Key West, Florida mounted under an anchored 40ft boat. Here are some of the aquatic species you will see – parrot fish, horseshoe crabs, grunts, snapper, hog fish, blue tangs, angelfish, puffer fish, octopus, spiny lobster, crabs, tarpon and barracuda. A flood light gets turned on at night which ignites the fish to feed.”
It’s almost here, people.
The 15th Annual Gigantic Nautical Flea Market will be held February 20-21 at Founder’s Park here in Islamorada. You’ll find great prices on all things nautical…boats, dive gear, fishing rods, lifevests, and anything else you can possibly imagine.
It’s put on every year by the Upper Keys Rotary, easily the smartest and best-looking Rotary club in the world. Last year we had 25,000 people come by, and we grossed about $150,000. All profits go exclusively towards scholarships for kids in the Upper Keys.
Good time, good cause. And did I mention the $5 all you can eat breakfast?
Here’s more info about the flea market. And if you come, stop by the food tent and say hello!
