Day 4



GO FISH! 🐟🐟🐟
Captain Matt Bellinger of Bamboo Charters took the boys bayside to hunt and gather.

Bryan landed this Snook. Nice catch. But, a throw back.
Bryan, Deacon, Pat and Capt. Bill Hardy brought in some Sea Trout for a delicious “hook & cook”.

Jen, Kathy & I waited patiently poolside for our sailors to return from sea.
A much needed distraction for all.

Tomorrow we will be isolated from mainland Florida.
Thoughts and prayers for our law enforcement that will be on the front line.
🙏

From A Distance

Monday March 23, 2020 Day 1 Angler House Marina Islamorada, Florida Keys. The voyage of Isle of View Too can be found at isleofviewtoo.blogspot.com. We said Bon Voyage  to Alexandria Bay, NY on October 2, 2018 and arrived in Islamorada on November 19, 2018. We call this beautiful island paradise “home”. For over a year now, we have become part of this community. A community that truly cares for one another. A community of hospitality. We’re a community of resorts, hotels, restaurants, fishing guides, servers, housekeeping staff, hospitals, teachers, gift shops, salons, grocery stores etc. A community that survived Hurricane Irma. A community that will survive this crisis. Islamorada is a community of good people that rally in times of need. This is a scary time. I’m scared. I bet you are too. They  say “We’ll get through this together”. Well, we’re not together. Not the way it was. Not the way we want to be. We’re in quarantine, social distancing, washing

Happy Birthday Laura

Wednesday April 1, 2020 Day 10 Laura Francis Gedbaw Allen I met Laura when she was 4 years old. Again, another unexpected daughter. 💕 I was 22, dating a man that had 3 little girls! Laura is carefree, loyal, stubborn and a bit of a procrastinator. Things are done in “Laura time”. Oh to be like Laura. She, like her sister Beth, is a wonderful wife and mother. The apple didn’t fall far from the tree. She has the the same passion and determination as her father. Laura struggles with Rheumatoid Arthritis. She never complains. She is a fighter. She lives the life of a conqueror. Happy Birthday Laura! My beautiful life began with a “ready made family “. 3 loving girls who love unconditionally. 💕 I am grateful every day. 🙏

When Did This Start?

Tuesday March 25, 2020 Day 2 I like to think this is where my mom and dad are ... to me this is heaven. Where the ocean meets the sky. Where there’s no horizon. When did it start? The beginning of the unknown? For me it was Thursday, March 19. Our friends, Ted & Betty and Miles & Kathy, abruptly ended their winter stay in the Florida Keys to go home. Home to their safe place. They will self quarantine, wash their hands and practice social distancing. Will I see them again? 😞 Will they want to see me? 🤣 We haven’t seen Jen & Pat or Deacon & Kathy. They’re only about 10 miles away! Social distancing sucks. 😡 The rest of the world was made aware of this cruel Coronavirus sometime in January. Why did it take so long for me to get the news? Perhaps I was in denial? I live on an island! We’re so isolated! There’s no one sick here! This virus can’t possibly survive here! The UV rays will kill it! Sure Gigi. 😎 Until ... the first known case
