Key West at the bottom of the Florida Keys was a wonderful place to live. I loved living there. Key West is a small drinking town with a large fishing problem! Or something like that. I think the best thing about Key West is you know that clothes you are wearing every day shorts and tee shirt. The worst thing about Key West is that during the Atlantic hurricane season the heat index can become unbearable at times due to the extremely high humidity. I would dash outside and jump in our pool and then out of the pool and back indoors to the AC. The 6 month dry season is wonderful though. If you are British you will find so many English, Scottish, Welsh, N Irish and Irish there who mostly all know each other. So many other Europeans live there too. I found the local Americans who's families have lived there for years are really cool liberal people too.

I'm off on a key worker mission during 'Lockdown 2' to keep the busy Port of Liverpool container handling equipment running. Sounds grander than it really is.
Today I have an interesting car - a KIA Niro Self Charging Hybrid. It has just over 1,900 miles on the clock. Driving at low speed it goes to silent EV only mode which is pretty cool.
Not unsurprisingly Enterprise had a lot of cars on the forecourt.

Former Leicester 24 (LJF 24F) is seen here at the depot of Key Coachways, Rugeley.This Metro Cammell bodied Leyland PD3A was brought out for us to photograph. As you can see, the repaint is not yet finished.
This is what I currently have. Some will make better key chains than others. First come first served. You will be put onto a list when you confirm with me, then when I get to you on my list, I will then confirm what pad you want and how you want it designed.

In the street of Badaguan area (Qingdao, China), a local man lost in a batch of tourist was quite surprised to see that I was capturing him with my DSL-R. Like most of the Chinese guy of his generation, he handle his keys on the side of his trousers, adding a little noise when he is walking. For him, it seems to be also an distractive option. The key player of the street of Badaguan. Where is he going? What does he hide inside his bag?
I've read elsewhere online that using wide angles for people shots is a no-no.
I beg to differ! ;-) EF-S 10-22mm at it's widest. Watch out for fingers...
La Maison et Musée d’Ernest Hemingway à Key West :
Ernest Hemingway a débarqué à Key West (au printemps 1928) avec sa deuxième femme Pauline, sur les conseils de John Dos Passos, autre membre de ce que l'on a appelé la "Génération perdue" (artistes et écrivains américains expatriés à Paris dans les années 1920). En déambulant dans les rues, on peut presque imaginer le style de vie de ce monstre sacré dans les années 1930, du temps d’un autre Key West, celui des parties de pêche, de la prohibition, des cargaisons pirates pour Cuba et de la tempête du siècle de 1935.
Après deux saisons passées à Key West, l’oncle de Pauline acheta, pour le jeune couple, la maison de Whitehead Street, pour 8000 dollars en 1931. La maison en pierre, de style franco-espagnol en vogue à la Nouvelle-Orléans, a été construite en 1851 par Asa Tift (architecte dans la marine et chasseur de trésors dans les épaves). Le domaine étant le deuxième point de sol le plus élevé de l'île de Key West, le calcaire à partir duquel la maison est construite a été excavé directement du sol sous la structure et taillé à la main, grâce à une main-d’œuvre constituée d’esclaves. L'électricité a été ajoutée vers 1899 et la plomberie vers 1944, lorsque Key West a reçu l'eau courante de Florida City. Avant cela, il fallait utiliser l'eau de pluie collectée dans deux réservoirs, l'un entre la maison principale et la remise et l'autre sur le toit de la maison principale.
La villa est à étage et entourée de balcons, avec des portes-fenêtres et de grands volets. La maison de Key West est composée de peu de pièces (mais relativement grandes). A l'abandon depuis 1889 le couple entrepris de grandes rénovations. Les Hemingway l'ont décorée de meubles venus d'Europe (notamment des antiquités espagnoles du XVIIIe siècle), de trophées rapportés de leurs safaris en Afrique ou de leurs parties de chasse dans l'Ouest américain. La collection de lustres a remplacé tous les anciens ventilateurs de plafond. Comme Ernest était également amateur d'art, vous pouvez voir une vue de l'église Saint-Paul peinte par l'artiste local Eugene Otto (sur le mur du fond du salon) et une grande lithographie montre Gregorio Fuentes (cuisinier et compagnon sur le bateau de pêche de Papa Pilar pendant plus de 20 ans). Dans la pièce en face du salon, il y a une chaise Cardinal en cuir rouge (près de la porte) qui aurait été utilisé comme accessoire dans la production de Broadway de La cinquième colonne. Dans cette atmosphère si particulière, un air de « Belle époque » plane dans l’air. Pour les fans de l’écrivain, on retrouve son fauteuil fétiche, d’anciennes photos personnelles de ses voyages autour du globe, et bien sûr sa machine à écrire Royal.
Ernest Hemingway landed in Key West (in the spring of 1928) with his second wife Pauline, on the advice of John Dos Passos, another member of the so-called "Lost Generation" (American artists and writers expatriated in Paris in the 1920s). Walking through the streets, you can almost imagine the lifestyle of this sacred monster in the 1930s, in the days of another Key West, that of fishing trips, prohibition, pirate cargo for Cuba and the storm of the century of 1935.
After two seasons in Key West, Pauline's uncle bought the Whitehead Street house for the young couple for $ 8,000 in 1931. The French-Spanish stone house in vogue in New Orleans, was built in 1851 by Asa Tift (architect in the navy and treasure hunter in wrecks). The estate being the second highest point of soil on the island of Key West, the limestone from which the house is built was excavated directly from the ground under the structure and cut by hand, using a hand work made up of slaves. Electricity was added around 1899 and plumbing around 1944, when Key West received running water from Florida City. Before that, rainwater collected in two tanks had to be used, one between the main house and the shed and the other on the roof of the main house.
The villa is upstairs and surrounded by balconies, with patio doors and large shutters. The house in Key West is made up of few rooms (but relatively large). Abandoned since 1889, the couple undertook major renovations. The Hemingways decorated it with furniture from Europe (notably Spanish antiquities from the 18th century), trophies brought back from their safaris in Africa or from their hunting trips in the American West. The chandelier collection has replaced all the old ceiling fans. As Ernest was also an art lover, you can see a view of the Saint Paul Church painted by local artist Eugene Otto (on the back wall of the living room) and a large lithograph shows Gregorio Fuentes (cook and companion on Papa Pilar's fishing boat for more than 20 years). In the room opposite the living room, there is a Cardinal chair in red leather (near the door) which would have been used as an accessory in the Broadway production of The Fifth Column. In this very special atmosphere, an air of "Belle Epoque" hangs in the air. For fans of the writer, there is his favorite chair, old personal photos from his travels around the globe, and of course his Royal typewriter.

My Great-Grandfather had died some time ago and so, as a post death birthday party, all of my family had gathered together to celebrate his life one last time.
During the celebration, we had made key chimes out of things he owned, and he had owned a lot, but while creating the chime, I had found a lock with an interesting zig-zag keyhole sitting on the table with the keys, so I decided to find the key, and find it I did.
Now this key and the lock it went to sits on my dresser, forever reminding me of the man who had made my life, my mother's life, and my grandmother's life, so much more joyful.
