The Travels of the Agnew Family

I knew Ed had been feeling a little off for the past few days but at 3am when he announced he needed to go to a doctor in the morning I knew he was feeling pretty bad. Given the number of trips we've taken over the years, I guess it's about time to test our travel insurance. After googling walk-in clinics we called the insurance company. With his authorization number in hand we drove to the walk-in clinic. A five page questionnaire and less than an hour wait and Ed was in. The first person to look at Ed was a paramedic --- he waved a stick over Ed's head and when asked if it was a thermometer answered he got it from "a Star Trek convention --- just kidding". A test and chat with a nurse practitioner resulted in a diagnosis and a prescription called into a local pharmacy. From the time we left the rental house till the time we were in a restaurant eating breakfast, doctor visit done and drugs in hand about 2 1/2 hours had passed. Didn't think that was too bad at all.

Back at the rental I sat outside and enjoyed the dock area.


The back of the house. On the right hand side of the photo you can just see the edge of the canal.


This little guy was enjoying the dock area too.

The antibiotics kicked in pretty quick. After a nap, Ed was ready to go geocaching.


A small bridge from the original railway has been converted to a fishing bridge.


The pelicans are funny. They fly off the railing when you start getting close to them. Then fly a loop and return to almost the same spot once you are past.

We decided that we needed to see a sunset while we are in the keys and what better place to see the sun set than at the Sunset Grill.


The pool is part of the restaurant.


The view was beautiful, the atmosphere nice and the food excellent.

Ed has an infection and is starting to feeling much better already thanks to the miracle of not so little pills.
