Weekend Fun...

Hi all! Josh and I have had 2 busy, fun weekends in a row! The first one was a planned temple trip to Orlando where we also went to the Universal Parks again since we have a 3 month pass. Angie and Matt also met us there from Alabama which was a lot of fun. This past weekend was more of an upexpected adventure! We found out around noon on Saturday that Kenny Chesney was having a free concert that evening in Key West...well we rushed through our chores and hopped in the car around 2:00pm to try to make it to a concert that started at 5:30, and that was 4 hours away! You see, Key West is only about 170 miles from our place; however, the majority of the way is a small 2 lane highway with water on both sides and bridges when there isn't any land connecting the Keys. Sooo, 170 miles takes around 4 hours to drive! It's a gorgeous drive though, one that I'd recommend to anyone...bright blue waters, white sand, and very tropical. Anyway, we made it to Key West around 6:15 but still saw plenty of Kenny! He was playing in a local bar, basically just partying and enjoying his weekend in the Keys. The "concert" was very casual, he sang a lot of his own stuff but also a lot of other artist's songs and he sang for about 4 hours including a bathroom break! It was very fun and very cool to see Kenny up close and personal! Jamie took pictures of him while my camera sat in the backpack but I'll try to get some from her and post a couple.

This is outside of the bar he was playing at, called "Sloppy Joes"

The concert/Key West goers: Josh, Jamie, Storm, Brooke, Lindsey, Taffy (the woman who informed us of and invited us along for the free Kenny concert), Punj and Casey

We ate dinner at the original "Margaritaville" along Duval Street then started the trek back to Miami-we didn't get home until very early Sunday morning!
