@rumpfshaker I lived in Key West in the late 90s. The safest places I went were gay bars. Friendly, protective, and fun. The alternative not so much. I was always made to feel unsafe.
@Keysfins@mass_ave Yes! I moved here in '76 from Homestead AFB. In '86 we sailed from Curtis Marine, on the outside. What an experience. What years were you in Key Largo?That's where I've lived officially since 1976.
@Keysfins@mass_ave In 1986, I sailed from Tavernier to New York Harbor. It was a grand celebration for the reunveiling of the Statue of Liberty. Tall ships from many countries, the Kennedy aircraft carrier and 5000+ boats anchored off of Ms. Liberty ๐ฝ It was AMAZING. I remember OPSAIL too.
