Dora poses before we leave for church
|

Dora decided to take a photo of herself - aren't all the freckles cute?
|

Mike, Wanda, and Taylor joined us at church for this special day
|

Mike and Wanda stood up with us and Reverend Ron performed the ceremony
|

Dora and I were a lot less nervous than we were 30 years ago
|

Check out the silk flowers Dora's holding - her mom made those 30 years ago for our marriage ceremony
|

All the words had more meaning this time around because we love each other so much more
|

Dora got a bit emotional. Mark did too but no one noticed.
|

When I zoomed in on the previous photo, I saw our friends getting emotional too, including Evelyn (front) and Dorothy (rear)
|

The happily re-wedded couple
|

Time for some cake!
|

Cutting the cake - we didn't shove cake in each other's mouths like we did in 1980, thank goodness
|

Our good friend Glenda

The Mckenneys

It was a 4-hour drive from Miami to Key West but with food stops, it took us 6. It was weird seeing water on both sides of the road. The 7-mile bridge was . . . well . . . long.
|

Every little town (Key) had its own marina. Dora and I agreed that we'd love to own a big motorboat and have the money to just travel along the coast of North America.
|

You could tell that Herbie's had character from the highway. Great conch fritters and seafood chowder!
|

El Siboney is one of the best Cuban/Spanish restaurants in Key West. Love that yellow rice!
|

Dora and I wanted to go south and . . . well . . . we made it as far south as we could go!
|

Happiness is a conch fritter and no responsibilities.
|

One of our favorite stops was the Butterfly Conservatory in Key West. Dora couldn't stop gasping with amazement.
|

Beautiful butterfly!

Manny, Moe, and Jack the Pelicans hangin' out
|

One of those big tall sea birds with skinny legs whose name I could come up if I searched on Google
|

Beautiful Key West sunset!

Toured the Shipwreck Museum and saw some pirate booty (no, not that kind)
|

Beautiful Key West sunset!

Beautiful Key West sunset!

REALLY Beautiful Key West sunset!
|

A gang of pelicans on the street corner, obviously up to no good
|

Beautiful Dora
|

We ate Key Lime pie in 5 different restaurants. This was the tallest (piece of pie, not restaurant).
|

Waiting for the sunset at Mallory Square. No sunset this day - instead, we got one heck of a storm that blew in very quickly, sending everyone running for cover
|

Mallory Square - home of vendors, street performers, and sunset watchers
|

Near Miami - love this shot of Dora

Lots of marinas on Miami Beach
|

And lots of shops and restaurants
|

Found a great Italian restaurant on South Beach - Dora loved the pizza
|

If this is Miami, where's Don Johnson?
|

Truman's "Little White House" in Key West - President Truman's favorite vacation spot
|

Truman's desk, in his bedroom
|

Truman's favorite nap spot
|

This is where Truman played poker with supreme court justices and military generals. This was pre-Texas Hold 'Em days.
