I’m not much of a sun person. We fair-skinned, redhaired, Irish girls tend to burn. But I do love the beach if I can have some shade – or a big hat. So we rode our bikes to the Fort Zachary Taylor State Park and then strolled along the Gulf Coast. ...
We took a trolley tour that took us all over the island. Our guide’s name was Michael and he was “awesome!” (that’s what he asked us to put on his comment card). While I was dreaming of giving up my job and moving to Key West, I decided that being a tour guide...
