Up date for anyone new considering a visit to Key West

The dates for the majority of those who have committed (or should be committed) are arriving Saturday February 18 and departing the 25th.

Please feel free to arrive any time you like and leave or not. I will continue to purchase lottery tickets to help facilitate my wishes along those lines.

This link http://www.keystravel.com/Margaritavillas.html should get you to the site many of us booked through. The guy who will answer your phone call is Rand. He lived in Key West many years. His dad it the well known KW personality "Love 22". At least that's what Rand told me. It's best to phone him vs e-mail. Be prepared to have your leg talked off.
He may have some accommodations available at The Truman Annex which is where many of us are staying. The Annex had the best rates I could find for Old Town. The one bedroom condos are not nearly as easy on the budget as splitting a two bed with friends. I'm guessing $160 a night splitting the two bedroom vs $289 in the one bedroom. I think Rand works through this main Truman annex site http://www.compass-realty.com/

If you going the one bedroom route I'd suggest looking at http://www.edenhouse.com/ . It's a pretty cool throwback hotel. You'd like it if you are a Hippy. Nice free happy hour poolside every day. It's a bit far from the Truman Annex but nothing in Old Town is too far from anything else in my opinion. I think I would want to stay at The Eden House if cost were not a consideration.
Also consider http://www.roselanevillas.com/. Much closer to the action by about 6 blocks. One block off Duval. 1, 2 and 3 bedroom condo style.

You can stay in New Town a bit more cost effective but then you have travel to Old Town issues. Most larger New Town hotels have shuttle service.

Here's a link to many many places to stay. http://www.keywest.com/accommod.html It also has all sorts on link and info about KW.

Showing the week of 2/18/12 - 2/28/12 at The Red Barn Theater

Forbidden Broadway, written and conceived by Gerard Alessandrini. This Off-Broadway satirical musical revue has been running in various versions in New York for 25 years. It sharply spoofs show tunes, characters and plots of popular Broadway musicals with snappy lyrics and fabulous costumes. In 2006, the show was awarded Tony honors for Excellence in Theatre. Forbidden Broadway has been seen in more than 200 US cities as well as London, Tokyo, Singapore and Sydney and now comes to Key West! Red Barn Theatre’s production is the first one to be licensed to use a local cast. Audience favorites Eric Cole, J.B. McLendon, Gayla Morgan and Marjorie Paul-Shook make up the cast of this hilarious evening. Becky Barta, veteran of many Forbidden Broadway shows, will direct.

Some pics of our shared pool

I've looked at some aerial views of this location recently. It look like there may be increased shade due to palm tree growth.

This is close to where we are staying
