Christmas In The Keys... Wishing you Laughter, Love, and Joy ... Tropical Style

Christmas in the Keys.
Forget the snow....Gimme the Sand!
Much prefer Santa Sleigh being pulled across our sparkling waters by a Pod of Dolphins.

I love Christmas down here.

Palm trees strung with lights ... lobster trap Christmas trees, and Hogfish for Dinner rather than ham.

Yes it's  Different down here, a little twisted and a little bent, just like your Conchquistador.

But one thing remains the same.  The spirit of Love for your family, neighbor and fellow man.

With so much crap going down throughout the World right now, let's remember THAT Spirit today, and throughout the year, and spread Peace and Joy to each other, regardless of faith, color, gender, or whether they like the Bayside or Ocean, fish with live bait or artificials, or if they prefer Lobster to Stone Crab.

Yes, there are things that separate us, but Love...Love unites.

And LOVE is abundant in the Florida Keys!!!

Your Conchquistador wishes you and your Loved Ones a Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukkah (late), Happy Kwanzaa, Happy Yule, a Merry Festivus or whatever you celebrate during this festive time of Year!!

All the Very Best!!

Now give me a Margarita!  It's 85 degrees out here.

Big Dick, You Certainly Left An Impression. We Will Miss You.

Yes, I know the title sounds salacious, but unfortunately the Keys lost a icon recently that provided us so much entertainment and laughter.   Jack Snipes aka "Big Dick" of  Big Dick and The Extenders

Big Dick and The Extenders where THE Keys band for many years, especially during the 80s and 90s and held court at Woody's in Islamorada, long before it became the strip club that it is now.
 
I enjoyed quite a few, fun nights there listening to their sets and dancing the night away, with their own brand of bawdy, cheeky, fun.

Later christened as the Big Richard and the Family Fun Band, Jack and his crew held sway at Lorelei for quite some time, providing a more toned down but always fun show.

Today, The Keys will remember and honor this local legend of snarky mirth, with a Celebration of Life, with a party and BBQ at Lorelei from 12-4, culminating with a ceremony to spread his ashes in Florida Bay, and then a further celebration at his old haunt, Woody's.  Not to worry, they are having the girls put their clothes back on for This party, though I am certain, Jack would have approved if they left them off!  LOL

Please come by as we say Good Bye and Thank you to a Keys Entertainment Legend!

RIP, Jack and put on a Great Show!

Your Conchquistador goes Highbrow as American Caribbean Co-Sponsors Art Miami!

Damn!! And I thought there were some Freaky people in Key West ... Art Miami had a lot of them beat!

Ah the wonderful world of Art and the melange of beatnik Artists, Monied Collectors, sycophants and wanna-bes. A cross section of Attention Whores and truly gifted and talented Visionaries blessed to be able to turn their imagination into manifestation.

Such is the world of the modern day Art Expo Extravaganza...And Hey! We're proud to be a sponsor!!

All snarkiness aside, American Caribbean and Christie's International Real Estate are genuinely proud to be a sponsor of Art Miami, a satellite expo of the famed Art Basel, featuring edgy Art from around the world.
 
The American Caribbean/Christie's International Booth at Art Miami
As yet another unique venture and creative way to expose our property listings to exceptional clientele, we are actually occupying a beautiful booth within the event! Complete with big screen monitors highlighting exceptional real estate opportunities to showcase your incredible art collection.


Our Big Screen featuring my listing,"Mariposa" on Grassy Key
With an estimated 80,000 attendees, this is sure to be an epic event, full of festivities beyond description and compare.

Last night's VIP opening was a spectacle indeed. And though many had their own opinions on what was actually "Art", all who stopped by our booth agreed that our properties were Masterpieces!
