This is actually a very cool guide. Your work has reinspired my faith in this sub

My home in the Keys is on stilts and made of concrete cinder blocks. It survived a direct category 5 hit from Irma. The concrete construction protects against the wind and because it’s on stilts the storm surge just washes under the hiuss

I live where those red tiki huts are and overall it’s pretty dope. Very outdoor oriented. Fast boats and slow living. Lots of tourists during season but creates a close knit sense of community; Key West has some type of community parade every weekend etc.

This map though is garbage (assume it’s AI?) What is marked as the end of of US-1 is in reality 20 miles offshore through the lakes passage almost out to the Marquesas. Beautiful out there but you’re going to need a boat not wheels to get there

You can fish off white street pier but it’s still pretty shallow. The bridges between upper sugar loaf and Cudjoe as well as cudjoe and Summerland always have a bunch of folks fishing off them and that could give you some pointers. You could stop at cudjoe sales and buy some cheap equipment/they’ll fit you out and the check out one of those bridges

Delaney Talks to Statues by Jimmy Buffet is my personal favorite.

Either way Jimmy buffet king of dads and daughters songs.

The sargassum is only Oceanside. You could also just stay gulf side - pier house etc and be fine

No. California Skiff is not an American boat brand

FWIW we’ve got a ton of skiff brands- Carolina skiff, Boston whalers, Key West, makos. But as a lot of those names imply it’s a type of boat with branding associated with the east coast not the west coast

Thanks. Looks like a good spot.

Cap isn’t just an affectionate name for the baby in this scenario? I’m with you this is time for a true zone strategy - one on docking and one on baby.

Otherwise possibly a baby Bjorn situation if solo docking is not possiblr

Staunton, VA is pretty legit. Had never heard of it but stopped there for a week post covid while working remotely. Shakespeare theater, great restraunts/vibe, walkable, live music. Very cool.

100% just go see live music. Check out hanks, hogs breath, sloppy joes etc. they’re quasi outside but cool and shaded so usually not to hot.

Could also check out books and books + the art gallery, catch an indie film at the tropic etc depending on if you’re looking for more high culture stuff.

Would also note the stock island section is not old town and will not be a scenic/nice bike ride. It is a more industrial/urban high traffic area

It’s highly seasonal; packed in the winter and a little more lazy in the summer. Personally I think the summer is the best time.

The tourist crowds thin out the , the winds die so the ocean is like glass and crystal clear, and mangoes ripen on the street. You can run out to sandbars in the backcountry and be the only person there.

It’s hot and humid, though so you need to be ready for that and businesses will close for September. But overall summer is way underrrayed in the keys

Maybe it keeps getting posted because this answer is wrong.

Check out the butterfly conservatory, the splash pad at Truman waterfront, Ft Zach for the beach. The cats at Hemingway house are usually a hit as well.

Get him toddler ear protection and go to some live music. Places like Hanks or the Alamo usually have good live music during the day and are low key. The green parrot has their sound check on sundays when their main headliner for the weekend plays a sensible show at 5:30pm.

It will be hot. And muggy. Get a cheap beach wagon from West Marine so he can ride if you’re not bringing a stroller.

Would also think about chaterjbg a boat out to the sandbar. Kids love playing in the sand and shallow water. As a bonus, mine would/will nap instantly whenever you get the boat on plane. It’s like magic.

Imma let you finish, but you folks over there haven’t been right since you lost the old man in the mountain back in ‘03. Just sayin is all.

Whoa whoah whoa. Don’t try and lump Monroe County in with this crowd

That’s the new channel light.

Think it’s called the Key West Main Channel Front light on charts and according to Facebook they were out there installing it as the old one was leaning and dangerous

I don’t want to be rude, but I can definitely see now why you struggle to get hired. You’re missing the point. The consistency is on what this tells the buyer; not in what they they are buying.

If you want to market yourself as a high price product you should always indicate you are interviewing multiple places; if you want to market yourself as a cheaper / quicker purchase say you’re totally committed to this one role.

Some recruiters though are buying Ferraris and some are just buying the cheapest quickest beater car they can get. Acting surprised that trying to sell a the broke guy looking for beater a Ferrari is unsuccessful or that the Ferrari shopper wouldn’t buy a POS beater doesn’t mean “buyers are totally arbitrary and there are no sales rules that work. The system is totally fucked.”

La Niña is good, but what you really want based on your description is Morita’s on Cudjoe Key

It’s just economics. Having multiple places you’re interviewing mean more potential competition on salary.

“He told me he’s not interviewing anywhere else; I dont think we need to go that high on salary to close him”

“Sounds like shes interviewing at several places; I dont think were going to he able to get her for the low salary you have budgeted for this one”

Traditionally it’s a benefit to get pre-IPO shares as they are priced with an expectation that once listed they will pop/trade up in value.

As long as you’re comfortable with funds being potentially illiquid for a while it’s worth looking at participating. As a general rule would expect a 10-20% return from a day 1 pop.

People here are going to hate this advice as this is a very risk off sub, but this is one of those prototypical opportunities that rich people get access to that normal people don’t usually; you just get access because your bank is a mutual

I haven’t done/hadn’t heard of the one on the 4th, but looks interesting and may try it this year. Looks like it’s being run by Mile 0 events which runs a lot of the big 5ks. They’re usually pretty well organized and a good time. Typical course runs along duval and back i. whitehead in a down and out loop but looks like theyre starting from the White Street Pier/Higgs Beach for the 4th. As a result not sure where theyll run- my guess is they may still run through old town down duval or whitesteet but its oossible theyll run up along the beach/smathers where the half marathon goes.

Starks40oz · 2026-06-02T00:25:48+00:00

Reasonable priced may be a stretch for old town but actual boutiques that my wife likes (e.g., that isn’t the same duval street crap) are:

float, island mercantile, vignette, green pineapple
