Where we are now
We have made it to our winter home – Naval Air Station Key West. NAS Key West operates two campgrounds on the island, Trump Point and, where we are, Sigsbee Island. Great place to stay – a short bike ride to Duval Street and Mallory Square, you can kayak and snorkel right from the campground, and we have more friends here than when we owned a house. We’ll be here until early March.
