Funny story... got a call from the local hardware store where they know me all too well. "Um Dave, you're grandfather (who's had just turned 85) is in here and buying a chainsaw..."

He went and bought his own birthday present at age 85. LOL

This just reminded me of him, especially after he bought it. :14:

When you have chain saw, everything looked like a tree.

Yes please bring the chain saws those cloppers suck and you hands hurt after using them for about an hour.
I tell ya this is the place to come for clean-ups you SB poeple are great you even know what is needed.

I am also going to talk with the Wreck Gallery & Grill to see if they will make sure they have one of those all you-can-eat shrimp or fish dinners during that time also. It's not but a 5 min drive down the road. Great place to eat and have a few beers.

So I guess I'll be the dense one from "Northern" South Florida (???). Where exactly are we looking at going? All I can make out so far is the keys, which I'm planning on doing anyway, but there are a lot of those island things down thataway right?

Grassy Key MM58 just over the Duck Key Bridge on the O/S.

CID, in the keys, everything is by mile markers (MM), the distance from Key West. Only one road from Florida City to Key West, US 1. MM59 is approximately in the middle of the keys. O/S = Ocean Side, or south side of the road. If you past MM58, you went too far! Hope this helps.

Got it. As soon as I got the directions, I found it. All I had read before was "the keys" so I had to get a little more detail than that! Is it the quarry on the south side of the road just past the bridge? Looks like a parking area to the west of a quarry on google maps so if that isn't it then I'll hang out in the parking lot with some libations while I think of where else it could be.

Marathon Aqua Ranch and Symbiologies You are right is has a big parking lot for cars and boats. Lots of camping areas and a Big building on the grounds which we have classes at. I will be there and there is a big sign out front that everyone will be able to see a mile away. When you reach MM58 start looking to your right. ( If by some reason you pass us you will know because you will see the Dolphin Research on your left, TURN around and go back it will be on your right)

I don't think you could miss the new sign out front.
