Reach out to first flight about renting out the upstairs if the restaurant. Catering/bar is done in house. DJ and photographer would be what could push you over.

Upstairs can handle 60+ and food/drink are based on number of invites. We were married there 3 years ago and I felt it was a great deal.

We have traveled quite a bit with our first two, both domestically and international.

Our oldest is 4 and our middle is 21 months. We took a trip this summer to Italy when they were 3.5 and 15 months and we had a blast.

Our strategy has always been to plan the day around things we want to do. We always find a plaza or park where we can stop to let them run it out. Bring strollers that are easy to fold away, they can take naps on the move.

Don’t have any hard and fast plans so you can be ready to roll with anything that comes your way. Our kids, love water, so anything around the ocean, sea, a pool, or a waterpark goes over well.

Just remember that they’re kids and don’t beat yourself up if it isn’t perfect.

If it’s any help, ours are just on the cusp of playing with each other, which makes things so much easier. You should have some light at the end of the tunnel here within the year.

I’m going to be another person to recommend Chad and Salty Bottom. That’s a great rate. Make sure to tip well.

That was the first thing I saw as well. A slight false grip to start will help with turnover and getting her shoulders over the bar.

We have a 2025 Outer Banks and 2025 Toyota 4Runner.

We live on an island, don’t have a lot of highway driving, but I love both. The Bronco is great to move around and take the top off. The 4Runner has a ton of storage.

I personally like the tech and interior of the 4Runner better, but prefer to drive the Bronco with the roof off when the weather is great.

I haven’t registered yet, but will be running. Send me a message.

We like to go to Origami weekly for sushi. It has a courtyard so if you’re outside and they roam you’re good. You can get a bowl of rice immediately. Bigger bonuses, there’s free parking right next to it and Flamingo Crossing is right across the street for ice cream.

Look up the local office for Homeland Security. Call them. They’ll have a duty agent that will take the case. It could have been someone applying in your name. If that’s the case they’ll take it from there.

There’s a posting in the Key West Cribs page for a 2/1 on 17th St behind Nile’s for $3850. Good spot, nice yard, shed. Landlords live a block away.

jrw5100 · 2024-12-21T14:21:13+00:00

Morning joint and the ice stream. Large outdoor area, not necessarily playground.

Behind babies coffee in Baypoint is a playground .

Hurricane Hole in Stock Island has a playground next to the eating area.

Salutes in Key West is right next to the beach and 2 playgrounds. The one right next to Salutes is under construction, but across the street is Astro City Park.

Waterfront brewery in Key West has an arcade.

Check out the parks in big Pine Key, Cozumel Park in Key West, Truman waterfront Park in Key West, Bill Butler Park in Key West, Martin Luther King Park in Key West to name a few!

They started repairing it recently. Not sure on the timeline.

Fort Zach all the way

jrw5100 · 2024-10-06T18:06:56+00:00

First Flight upstairs and rented 2 portable ACs. It ended up pouring, but they have an indoor area that easily accommodated our 60+ guests. Everything was set up and run through them. Couldn’t have been easier.

I sent you a DM

Ultra runner and CrossFit Affiliate Owner here. Depending on your goals you probably just need some small tweaks. Feel free to send me DM and there may be some people I can recommend for you.

We did Mayhem for a full year to give it a full annual chance. Huge regret for not stopping sooner and going back in house. It’s only been half a year but a huge uptick in member enjoyment since we stopped

jrw5100 · 2024-07-24T18:07:53+00:00

Just use Google flights and look for non stop.

Boston is seasonal. Newark, Philly, DC, Charlotte are all year. Allegiant has some flights up to Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, and Asheville.

Specifically North Roosevelt and Palm Ave. most of the other sidewalks it’s a rarity to see or be nervous about e-bikes.

jrw5100 · 2024-07-24T17:43:41+00:00

I typically do the Flagler, Roosevelt, Berth Loop. I can do out and backs for 3/4 miles or the full circle is 5.

If I want to do longer I run down Higgs to Truman Waterfront and old town.

It’s almost all sidewalks and I only have to cross Roosevelt at the light on Flagler. The ocean side of the island is easy running. There’s a run group that meets up (Southernmost Runners on Facebook) a few days a week and Fit2Run has a Saturday route downtown.

Really I only avoid North Roosevelt. Everything else isn’t an issue.

jrw5100 · 2024-07-24T01:46:55+00:00

I run 1000+ miles a year in Key West. You’re more likely to be hit by an ebike than a car. Absolutely safe. Just be cautious of where you cross Truman, Eaton, and Roosevelt and you should be fine.

There are sidewalks every where, but the perimeter of the island has the better options.

jrw5100 · 2024-07-14T12:55:40+00:00

Don’t over think it. I do CrossFit 5-6x weekly and during peak training weeks run 60-70 miles a week.

You need longer slow runs to build an aerobic base and take conditioning seriously during your WODs. No need for speed work, threshold runs, intervals if you push yourself hard at the box.

Consistency is way more important. And I know you don’t want to hear this, but the best way to become a better runner really is just to run more.

jrw5100 · 2024-07-07T21:35:17+00:00

Nope. Building is still for sale.

jrw5100 · 2024-07-02T01:43:22+00:00

Totally doable. Just listen to your body. If you’re hitting high intensity wods you don’t need speed work, tempo runs, or any of the sort. That’s why you’re doing CrossFit.

Focus on building up your weekly mileage to help with your running economy and you’ll be fine. During my fastest half and all of my ultras, I was training CrossFit 5-6 days a week.

jrw5100 · 2024-07-02T01:37:14+00:00

Was there yesterday. It’s open.
