Sugarloaf Key, Geiger Key

Friday began as advertised. Well, more gray than black.
Into Perky Creek
I have seen magnificent frigate birds on this key before. I was not expecting them in November.
Brown pelcians are always expected.

No Name Key

 


Made a stop at the Seven Mile Bridge on the way to Key West
The old bridge is a two mile bike and walk span
Pigeon Key

Hard to believe buses and semis could fit on this narrow span. I rode a Greyhound across it. At night, both ways, so did not get the view.
On the water at No Name Key at 12:30
I did not see another paddler as I circled No Name Key. And very few notor boats.
