Marathon Traditions...


We anticipate leaving Marathon in the next week so I suppose we should share with you one of the Marathon traditions that we have enjoyed during our stay. Each evening at sunset many of the boaters in the harbor (for which there are over 200 boats) blow their conch shells at sunset. It acknowledges the end of another glorious Florida Keys day and another beautiful sunset.

The photo here is our friend Dave blowing his conch shell as we enjoy a sundowner happy hour on board their boat Tiffany Rose. Thanks Dave, Shirley and Christopher.
