  An aerial view of our place in Marathon. You can see our home marked with a red dot. In the foreground is Fisherman's Towers. This condo is the tallest residential structure in all of the Florida Keys. You can see it before anything else when you approach by sea, and we are only a two blocks away... The entrance by water is the channel you can see in the upper right.

In September, 1997, we had our sailboat transported (via truck) from Marathon, Florida to San Francisco, California.  We really enjoyed the boat in California, with lots of week-ends anchored off places like Sausalito, kayaking or just goofing off.

 

We plan to return to the Florida Keys in 2002, or maybe 2003...? , sailing "SIESTA" through the Panama Canal, returning to our home base in Marathon.  The picture on the right  shows SIESTA at her home in Marathon, in 1997.

Our house in Marathon is located in Avenue "D", in the area of Coco Plum, right as you come into Marathon from Miami, on the ocean side.
