 Just Listed by Laurie McChesney at Preferred Properties Key West - 10 Lowes Lane. This will sell fast so move fast down this slow lane or you will lose your chance.

 None of the following listings are mine. I do hope that you will go and checkout the new listings and see what you can get for your dollars. I know prices are high.

 This is a follow-up to two previous blogs where I introduced readers to people arrested in or near Key West over the past few months. Potential buyers often express concern about how safe Key West is to live. Very safe in my opinion as long as you do not get stopped by a cop or highway patrol of...

 A few weeks ago I saw the trailer of Julia on HBO. I knew in an instant it would be must see tv for me. I binged the first two episodes and have been seen all four as of now. I was a Publix on Friday afternoon. I was waiting for the bagger to load groceries. The clerk asked "What are your plans ...
