It was so nice seeing a young Jimmy Buffet and Key West in the 70s. I lived in the Keys in 1968 and 1969. Loved it.

Jimmy buffet became a favorite of ours in the 80s.
Love his music.
I went back to key west in 1986 and 2012. It changed so much. Not that laid back.

Thanks for stirring up memories.

You're welcome! I'm so glad you liked that...and that you were able to experience the Keys back then. highplainsdem May 2025 #2
