Been there, it's over rated.

Ditto, boot camp in Orlando and a year in Key West was enough for me.  One can only take so much debauchery!

Thank goodness at least the strippers shaved their legs and armpits, the locals didn't!  Filthy Hippies!

Actually, I think Key Waste is a pile of coral with a few roads and ten bars on every corner...Mallory Square was a hoot as was Sloppy Joes, the Green Parot and any number of the local "exotic" establishments.  There was a strip joint directly across the street from the main gate.  The poor Marines guarding the gate had to look at the people stream in and out of the place 24/7...

I'd plan a trip back someday.  I was part of a group of Squids that were "volunteered" by the Command to help an archeologist dig out Fort Zachery Taylor on the southwest end of the rock.  Pretty cool stuff, still got some sand embedded in my backside from that place.  My girl probably suffered more than me!

 ;D

I went there as an 18 year old kid..........in retrospect, I wouldn't change a thing... ;D

All I saw of Orlando (remember, this was 1975, not much there yet besides Disney World) was the Naval Training Station and not much else.  I traded my 24 hour liberty to a guy who's family had come down from No Dakota or something for graduation.  I got about 16 hours off the base, spent with a young Wave, a case of beer and a hotel room...

No worries there, FQ....(your water tastes like sh!t in central Fl, for the record!)......and I don't spend a pile of money either......I'm a half-assed cheap SOB and we take a lot of our food and beverages with us .   ;)

At least you have good carry laws.   ;)

Talk about thread drift........

The statutes on the books already allow open carry to and from the range, fishing, hunting, and camping trips. FL Statute 790.33 (3)(h).

Local outfit "Dixie" Gun Works, here in Pompano Beach, is trying to organize a fishing/open carry meetup this Feb.   8)

Our water in S. Fl, is good for showers, laundry, and sprinklers,,.....other than that, it's bottled....

As far as the Keys?

Well, Here's the Town Council...Pretty laid back...Where do you think Santa goes in the off season? ;)



and remember, what happens in Keys, well we post pics on the internet and laugh about it.... 8)

That gal on the right was a young woman in 1975.....

Her beard is a little grayer.....

the Conch Train.....lived there a year almost and never rode the train...I had a '63 Bel Air to motor around in for a while.  Other than that, my own two feet and some beach sandals worked!
