My favorite "sunrise in paradise" location on Key West. These palms are featured on Jimmy Buffett's A1A album, and the back cover is about 50 yards north of here. While he lived here this was a favorite spot of his and he wrote a few songs here. Have been attempting to get the best shot of these palms for many years. I'M STILL TRYING!

My favorite "sunrise in paradise" location on Key West. These palms are featured on Jimmy Buffett's A1A album, and the back cover is about 50 yards north of here. While he lived here this was a favorite spot of his and he wrote a few songs here. Have been attempting to get the best shot of these palms for many years. I'M STILL TRYING!

After about 85 pictures of Jimmy Buffett aka "Da Man", I happened to like this one the best. I won't bore you with the other 84 pictures, but I have them for my safe keeping and memories of the concert for myself!
"The Year of Still Here" Concert, St Louis, Missouri. Verizon Amphitheater. April 24, 2008.
This was on a sign next to the gate:
Reasons why Jimmy Buffett should be the next president!
1. He is totally laid back and not a stuffy man. You would never see him in a suit and tie. Imagine the oval office being ran by a man who wears flip flops, and very casual clothes.
2. He is very casual in his speech and his state of the union addresses will be filled with music, good times, cheeseburgers in paradise and happy people.
3. He pilots his own planes (yes as in more than one) and this would save taxpayers tons of money. That includes a seaplane and a private lear jet!
4. You could fire the entire secret service men because Jimmy Buffett has his own bodyguards in the form of 2 million or more parrot heads around the world.
5. You could save countless taxpayer dollars in campaign funds, because Jimmy Buffett is already a household name.
6. He could fill the cabinet and all other offices with parrot heads because they are by far some of the most laid-back people. Imagine all offices in the United States government being staffed by parrotheads? What a wonderful world this would be.
7. He has been putting out his music since 1970 and that gives him an almost 40-year career of keeping people happy. He must be doing something correctly.
8. The new location of the White House would be in Margaritaville, it has cheaper taxes and better scenery.
