So it has been quiet the past month or so with no special events happening around town. The last one was Memorial Day but the time has come to get things started again. Next week brings 2 Events happening.
The first is Mel Fisher Days that begins with investors going out emerald hunting on Sat and then continues on through the week. We are scheduled to go out to emerald hunt on Sunday. If we find any I will be sure to let you know. MF Days commemorates the 23rd anniversary of finding the Atocha mother lode. There are many investor friends coming in for it so the week will be filled with much to do and many to see. The official events start on Thurs with a kick off party, Fri with a parade and pub crawl, Sat with an all night poker party and then of course a final party on Sun.
The other event that will be happening in town the same week is Hemingway Days. In case you don't know Hemmingway spent alot of time here. His house is still here and is a museum that you can tour. This is the place that has the 6 toed cats.
So this week long event is when the town fills with Hemmingway look alikes. There is a look alike contest at Sloppy Joe's that draws people from all over the world. It is amazing how many old guys there with white hair and white beards that look like him.
So I will let you know if we find any emerald in this never ending adventure
