On Marathon
Key we took a boat trip to Historic Pigeon Key. The trip was a short 15 minute
boat ride.
Our boat, going under the new and old bridge.
We didn’t have a reservation and didn’t need one. There was only another couple the tour guide and crew.
Make reservation here
The other couple were from Texas. They were from the Hill country, our favorite part of Texas. Turns out they were married at a small chapel about one mile from our favorite RV Park, at least in Texas. Talk about a small world.

Back to
Pigeon Key. The Key is historic in that it was a place that housed up to 4,000 workers building the overseas
highway and seven mile bride. You can

Some of the original buildings. The long building was a dormitory for the workers
Of special interest to Bob were the old cachet stamp covers .
This coconut fell while we were wanting for the boat for our return trip
This is a very interesting bit of history.
Thanks for following along.
We are getting a lot of ideas for our Keys trip.
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely. What RV park are you staying at? Did I miss that post? Thanks.
