"Morning Jaunt- Cabbage Key", 5x7, oil on board-$100-sale price!Cabbage Key is a small island in southwest Florida, accessible only by boat. There's a marina there where one can see all types of boats, moored for fishing or hanging out for lunch at The Cabbage Key Inn, where one can put their dollar bill on the wall just to prove they were there. It's a noted fact that Ernest Hemingway hung out at the bar there, and also rumored that Jimmy Buffett wrote "Cheeseburger in Paradise" after visiting Cabbage Key.
The island is lovely in the autumn and winter months where one can hike the nature trails without humidity, or just relax , Old Florida style. If you're looking for fast boats and glitz, Cabbage Key is not for you. But if you want to drop off the grid for a day or two, take the trip. Be sure to visit pristine Cayo Costa while you're there. It's just an island away. You can have a picnic lunch on the beach with egrets and watch dolphins frolicking.
Yup, enjoy life in the slow lane, just like this old boat.
