You might be in time for the big celebration

Gay Pride takes on an especially festive, friendly tone in the iconic gay resort community of Key West. It's one of the several colorful GLBT events planned throughout the year - from Gay Spring Break in late winter to Womenfest in early September - by the tropical island's Key West Business Guild, and it takes place each year over five days in early June. The dates of Key West Gay Pride this year
are June 10 through June 14, 2015.

No it's a guy we call Santa Claus Dave. The boat was suppose to be in "AX MEN" when they filmed here but didn't make the cut.
All controls are in the car-He did a great job on it. He's at the Blackwater Inn every Friday night-

Seems like a perfect thread for me to ask for some guidance. My husband and I winter in South Florida. He was stationed in Jacksonville back in the 70s, and we want to boat the St. John's River around there. Can someone from down there - Green Cove Springs, Jacksonville, anywhere in that vicinity - give us some tips on the best places to put our pontoon in? Where are there fuel stops along the river? Are there any things we need to know? He doesn't have any experience with boating the St. John's.

Thank you for your help!
