Wounded Warrior Ride

Wounded Warrior Ride

Today, the Wounded Warrior Bike ride came to Key West and we greeted them as they rode in. It was a big deal, blocked the road into Key West for over an hour. We were on Bikes so we just hoofed it back to the boat easily, cars? not so much, it was a jam. We finished our day at the Tiki Hut with fellow loopers grilling our best proteins. We chatted and caught up on all things boating and surprisingly talked alot about RVing as we had a couple visiting from a local RV park that are full time RV'ers, Steve & Kelly Heinzman. 

We also has a non-looper boater join us, a single woman that bought a 1981 70' Hatteras Motor Yacht "Shay La Vie". Amazing to see someone with no boating experience to speak of, go out and buy a 70' yacht and take it from Fort Lauderdale to Key West. Now understand, she is in year 3 to go this far as she spent the first year or two just getting the boat sea worthy. The boat was rough and need a lot of work, bless her heart for taking on that challenge and now living in Key West.
