I finally got the video right... on the third try! πŸ˜‚πŸŒ΄


Hey Reader,

Have you ever found yourself somewhere that made you stop and think...

"This feels a little like Key West." 🌴

That's exactly what happened when I spent some time exploring Disney's Old Key West Resort.

I had so much fun wandering around looking for all the little nods the Imagineers tucked into the resort. Some are obvious... others are easy to miss unless you've spent time wandering the real streets of Key West.

Have you been there?

Or maybe you've discovered another place that reminds you of the island?

Hit reply and let me know! I'm always looking for places that capture a little bit of that Key West magic.

🀦 A Little Behind-the-Scenes Confession...

If you follow me on Facebook or YouTube, you may have noticed something...

It took me three tries to get that video recorded. πŸ˜‚πŸŽ₯

I decided to try something new by adding photos into the presentation.

Great idea...

Except I didn't realize that every time I advanced the presentation... my microphone muted itself. πŸ€¦πŸŽ€πŸ™ˆ

So yes...

Take one.

Take two.

And finally... take three was the charm.

If you happened to catch one of those first attempts... thank you for hanging in there with me! Sometimes learning new technology keeps life interesting. πŸ˜„


πŸŽ‰ One More Thing...

I've been teasing it for a while...

And this week you'll finally find out what I've been working on behind the scenes.

I honestly can't wait to share it with you.

Keep an eye on your inbox... I think you're going to have a lot of fun with this one!


🧠 Trivia Time!

Last week's question was:

Where is Key West's "Hurricane Grotto" located?

The answer was Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto, tucked away on the grounds of the Basilica of St. Mary Star of the Sea.

One of the things I love most about Key West is that some of its most meaningful places aren't the busiest attractions. The grotto is one of those quiet little corners where history, faith, and community all come together.

After the devastating 1919 hurricane, Sister Louis Gabriel led the effort to create the grotto as a place of prayer and thanksgiving. More than a century later, it's still there, offering visitors a peaceful place to pause and reflect.

It's easy to miss if you don't know it's there... but once you've visited, it's one of those places you'll remember every time you return to Key West.


❓ This Week's Trivia Question

Let's see how you do with this one...
