 We arrived in Marathon, our winter base just before Christmas and have been spending the last week getting oriented to being back in the grove. First I had to dig all my shorts out and get properly dressed. I put a hen on the grill that I had marinated with a home made cajun marinade and it was delicious. As good as Emerill could do. 

I volunteered to do taxes for the AARP folks again this year and we start tax class next week. It lasts  for about 2 weeks and we start  work the first week of February.

I also have been getting the dinghy rigged up so I can sail her around the harbor.

Mike, a friend I met here last year, has been here since mid November and had a cold beer waiting for me when I arrived. It was good to see him and others that work and live here year around.

Took this picture yesterday at sunset off the stern. Another lousy day in the Keys.
