I've always wanted to visit the Keys, even more so now. Nicely done. Congratulations. (By the way, we say quay like bay out west here, probably because we aren't that familiar with them.)

Well you know I had to read this after seeing the title, dear. I'm familiar with all of the nautical terms and you have the pronunciation right. You gave us quite a picture in just 9 words. (Love the last two as seafood reigns in the Keys.) Best wishes in the contest! Love, Carolyn
