With the Marathon Seafood Festival this weekend, it seems appropriate to share the following number — there were close to 2 million recreational saltwater fishing licenses sold in Florida in the 2016-17 fiscal year. The sales generated close to $31 million during the same period. Saltwater licenses come in a variety of flavors — 3-day, 7-day and annual licenses.

Keys address folks still living in temporary trailers

O

n Sunday, March 10, Katrina Spelker of Marathon will cut her boat delivery short in order to meet FEMA officials at her agency-provided trailer to turn over the keys.

“I’ve been living in the trailer since Jan. 6, 2018 up until last week, when I left the Keys to go purchase a sailboat,” she said. “It’s a great deal, and I need a place to live until my home is rebuilt.”

The FEMA trailers were authorized to be occupied for 18 months following the natural disaster. At the start of the program, there were 242 households awarded assistance through the FEMA Direct Housing Assistance program. Currently, there are 27 households in Monroe County living in FEMA trailers. According to Matt Massoud, a senior planner for Monroe County, 19 of those households owned their own home, and 8 rented prior to Hurricane Irma.

Some, like Spelker, have found their own solutions.

She said she could not afford FEMA’s offer of a $1,700 a month “failure to vacate” fine.

“The very few, if any, who do not have housing come March 10th, be it permanent or temporary, will still be eligible for assistance through the Long Term Recovery Group if they choose to accept it,” Massoud said. The trailer evictees could be eligible for security deposits, monthly rent, construction grants, assistance with permitting and code compliance, and physical and mental health referrals.

Although 27 households in FEMA trailers is a low number, it does not begin to touch how many are still living in privately owned temporary trailers next to the destroyed or severely damaged property they own, or in some cases, renting a temporary trailer due to the lack of affordable housing, intensified by the some 4,000 homes destroyed or severely damaged by Hurricane Irma in the Keys.

Marathon city staff is researching that part of the problem right now.

“We’ve actually gone out and surveyed most streets in Marathon and split the trailers we found into categories — a stored camper, people living in temporary trailers, people that are renting trailers, etc.,” said Doug Lewis, Marathon’s growth management director. “There’s a wide range of what’s out there.”

Marathon has issued 154 permits for temporary trailer permits. Both Marathon and Monroe County have issued this type of emergency permit … but there are limits. Homeowners must demonstrate progress in rebuilding their home in order to be granted a permit extension on a case-by-case basis.

Lewis said once the survey of temporary trailers is complete, he will bring back the data to the Marathon City Council for a policy decision. Not every trailer has a permit, and it will be up to the council to decide how to manage property owners who cannot demonstrate rebuilding progress, or renters of temporary trailers who have no property to improve.

The restrictive policies governing FEMA travel trailers and privately owned RVs concern what happens the next time a hurricane hits the Keys. For example, two of the displaced households in Marathon were still living in FEMA-issued travel trailers following Hurricane Wilma in 2005; both were wrecked beyond repair.

In September 2018, when then Gov. Rick Scott announced $616 million in Rebuild Florida funds, it was expected home repairs would have negated the need for folks still to be living in the travel trailers come March 2019. According to a Rebuild Florida spokesperson, 1,128 Keys households have registered for assistance. Of those, 477 have “been invited to apply.”

Rebuild Florida must still conduct individual site reviews, and finish hiring the contractors to perform the repairs. The actual work of rebuilding homes has yet to begin. The deadline to register has been extended more than once, and is currently March 29. For more information, visit rebuildflorida.org.

T

he Monroe County Long Term Recovery Group opened its mobile Volunteer Village on March 5 on Big Pine Key. The village, set up on county-owned land, is a way to house volunteers temporarily when they come to the Keys to help with hurricane recovery.

“This village symbolizes the strong community spirit of the Keys and offers encouragement to other areas in the state and nation that are struggling to recover in the challenging months after a natural disaster,” said Michelle Luckett, executive director of the Monroe County Long Term Recovery Group.

“It demonstrates the power of collective action.”

The village has two container bunkrooms that can each accommodate 10 volunteers, and a mobile bathroom provided by the Salvation Army until the Volunteer Village bathroom is installed. The containers are on chassis that make them easy to move during hurricane evacuations, or to relocate to other sites where recovery help is needed in Monroe County.

Luckett thanked the Monroe County Board of County Commissioners, County Administrator Ro-

man Gastesi and Assistant County Administrator Christine Hurley for their guidance. She also thanked County Building Official Rick Griffin and his staff for their support.

About 100 people attended the celebration, including Monroe County Commissioners David Rice and Michelle Coldiron, former County Commissioner George Neugent and county staff.

Rice and Neugent were part of the July 2018 County Commission meeting that tasked the recovery group with finding solutions to housing volunteers.

“Although we are a long way from full recovery, there is a marked difference from the days and weeks after the storm,” Rice said. “This was the right thing to do, and today we are seeing the results of Michelle and the group’s efforts.”

The bunkrooms are already booked through April with volunteer disaster recovery groups.

There is also interest from an outside donor to fund a third mobile bunkhouse. By the end of March, the Long Term Recovery Group will have a phone number set up for potential volunteers to call.

“Now the real work begins,” Luckett said.

‘WE’RE SO EXCITED’ St. Columba gets $600,000 Red Cross grant

I

SARA MATTHIS

sara@keysweekly.com

n late November, when Rev. Debra Andrew Maconaughey visited the property at 1655 Overseas Highway in Marathon there was a great deal of excitement, but also trepidation.

The laudable goal of almost completely reconstructing 16 formerly condemned apartments was wonderful in theory, but not so much for the bottom line. Even with some grants in hand, St. Columba Episcopal Church needed about a half million dollars to complete the rehab.

Back in November, Maconaughey said, ““When I get worried about the details of this project, I just tell myself, ‘You have to have faith, Debra,’” she said.

The positive attitude paid off. Just last week, the church received notice it had been awarded a $600,000 grant from the American Red Cross.

“We’re so excited,” she said. “That will finish the job. It looks like a total construction site right now.”

The buildings have already been gutted, revealing healthy “bones” — solid concrete construction, concrete barrel tile roof, and indestructible terrazzo floors that have been buried under layers of flooring for years.

Maconaughey said the crews are working through spalling issues, digging trenches for infrastructure and waiting on permits for window installation.

There are four units to a building (two up, two down), and the buildings face each other across a communal space that will be completely landscaped. Each unit is about 525 square feet with wide windows, with

a combined kitchen-living room, a bedroom, a closet, and a bathroom.

The old pool will be removed to make more room for parking, and there are plans to develop an additional building into a communal space with some patio tables and umbrellas to the side.

Everything inside the apartments is going to be new.

“New windows, new plumbing, new electric and new Ikea kitchens,” said Maconaughey.

So far, St. Columba has received $375,000 from Episcopal Relief and Development, a “significant donation” from Fannie Mae, and $16,000 from Bridge To Hope. (Maconaughey said Bridge to Hope has promised to help some more.)

“And I also want to mention the City of Marathon and Monroe County; both have been very helpful on this project,” she said.

St. Columba’s notion to create its own affordable housing grew out of its response after Hurricane Irma struck the Keys in 2017. The church became an informal housing authority of its own — with 22 trailers, plus bunks in the auxiliary building and, when push came to shove, air mattresses in the parish hall.

“At first it was displaced residents living in the donated, rented and purchased trailers,” said St. Columba Episcopal Church’s disaster recovery coordinator, Rick Kidwell.

“But as they moved out, we brought volunteers in,” said Maconaughey.

When the apartments are finished later this year, they will rent for about $800 or $900 a month.

Marathon bridge explosion. JERRY WILKINSON COLLECTION/Contributed

TRAGEDY ON A BRIDGE Marathon History BRAD BERTELLI

I

www.keysweekly.com

t was a Monday afternoon on March 2, 1981 when a worker for the Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority began driving his flatbed truck across the Seven Mile Bridge. The driver was transporting a backhoe as he approached the 253-foot-long section of swing-bridge spanning Moser Channel.

The bridge tender, Peter Charles Fancher, was sitting in the small wooden office built within the steel girders supporting the bridge. Fancher, 39, was in the middle of a 12-hour shift and looking forward to retiring from his position the following week.

The clearance of the bridge was 15 feet 3 inches. The backhoe secured to the truck exceeded that height and as the truck approached the swing-bridge section, the backhoe collided with a series of steel girders before striking several large propane tanks.

The resulting explosion went off like a bomb, incinerating the wooden office. Fancher, of Big Pine Key, died instantly.

Brad Bertelli is curator of the Keys History & Discovery Center.

The 26th annual RE/MAX Children’s Miracle Network Chicken Roast was a wonderful success and raised over $3,100 for Miami Children’s Hospital, our miracle hospital. Of course, none of this would be possible if it weren’t for the giving people of the Keys.

A special "thank you" goes out to Bob Newman for his musical entertainment; Keith Andersen, Chef, Publix, Florida Keys Lobster House and Frank's Grill, dinner certificates; Lorraine Elbon, auction donations; Linda Wilton and Lorraine Elbon, desserts; Rita Rose, server; Roger Hall, auctioneer; and patrons who have supported the benefit the last 26 years. We thank the Marathon Shrine Club members for their continued support.

Of course, the benefit would not have been possible if it were not for the generous donations from Keith Andersen, and the use of the facility from American Legion Post 154 in Marathon. We couldn’t have done it without you.

Thanks again.

MARATHON SEAFOOD FESTIVAL

Y

ou can’t hire this type of help. Really. And it’s my absolute favorite part of the Marathon Seafood Festival — not the food, or even the music, or the opportunities for us island-locked, shopping-starved Keys residents.

It’s the people. Because it is truly the entire town’s labor of love to present this annual event on Saturday and Sunday, March 9-10, the second biggest event all year in all of the Florida Keys.

I can’t think of a single person who doesn’t “work” the festival in some aspect or another, including yours truly.

And that’s the way it has always been, dating back to 1976. On paper, the Marathon chapter of the Organized Fishermen of Florida and the Marathon Chamber of Commerce are the hosts of the event. In reality, it takes a village and has since the first festival.

Of course, the commercial fishermen make up a huge chunk of the people who make the seafood festival happen.

Paul Lebo, a commercial fisherman and Marathon Chamber of Commerce board member, oversees that part of the population, although he says not. “They just show up. I just order all the food,” he said. “Oh, and I’m in charge of plating the dinners.”

Raymond Bruland runs the shrimp tent while Pete Worthington and Mitch Gale oversee the preparation of the lobster and fish dinners. Mike Hammond runs the conchwurst and smoked fish dip booth (a delicious yet well-kept secret of the festival). Eddie Cordova Jr. oversees the lobster bisque and conch ceviche tables. Gary Nichols and Barbara Hewlett are in charge of the stone crab, oysters and clam chowder. Bobby Pilar does the conch fritters. Elizabeth Prieto — nothing short of a goddess on Sunday morning after a hard night of festivaling on Saturday — makes the Cuban coffee, plus sells the crab cakes and croquetas, a Cuban delicacy. Trish Worthington runs the sweets booth. The Turner family runs back and forth between the fish house and the festival grounds replenishing seafood supplies. Trish Baker … well, I think she might be in charge of keeping the volunteers sufficiently hydrated with beer; but, I could be wrong. Josh Struyf and his buddies man the soda and water trailer. Justin Bruland and Jo Ann Wagner handle the financial aspect.

None of the commercial fishermen (or friends thereof) mentioned in the paragraph above works alone. They all supply their own crew, who work around the clock for two days.

It’s not uncommon to have two or three generations of family and friends in every booth. Indeed, sometimes the best “party” is the narrow corridor behind the seafood booths, open only to friends.

But, at the festival, volunteers come from all walks of life.

Art Stephens is in charge of staffing the beer tent. Look for coaches and high school teachers filling cups as fast as they can. Nick Toman and his friends populate the wine booth which, this year, also extends to frozen alcoholic beverages.

John Bartus, Marathon’s mayor and a Weekly columnist, organizes all the music with his bandmate Glenn Faast. Ted Violissi, our favorite one-eyed pirate, makes the French fries and Centennial Bank staffs the hamburger and hotdog tent. There’s a smoothie tent under the purview of the Landry family, and

There are two heavy hitters left to mention — Randy Mearns and his crew from Marathon Electric Sign and Light, who run power to 200-plus vendors and essentially is in charge of setting up the festival grounds; and the chamber’s Jeanine Christiansen, who handles the logistics for the same vendors. Both are huge jobs; both work very hard.

There is another category of volunteers, too, the ones who work the gates and perform other miscellaneous tasks, like selling festival Tshirts or managing parking. They also number in the hundreds.

BUSINESS

MARATHON WEEKLY / MARCH 7, 2019 Editor’s note: It’s been 542 days since Hurricane Irma swept the Keys. By and large, the Keys have recovered. But there are still some pockets that are still working on rebuilding, including commercial fishermen.

Many lost thousands of traps and are still struggling against the vagaries of Mother Nature.

M

any homes and businesses were destroyed when Hurricane Irma swept through the Florida Keys. Some will never be rebuilt; many small businesses were forced to close forever.

“We were wiped out. No insurance. Everything was destroyed,” said George Cabrera. To try for a comeback after total devastation of the Lobster Walk — fish house, marina and fuel depot — seemed an impossible task.

In the wake of hurricane damage, George and Angel Cabrera were faced with the task of rebuilding this Upper Keys landmark with only help from family and friends.

“The lobster boats made it into the mangroves. Some had minor damage; they were virtually saved. Our marina and docks with all the buildings were wiped out. There was nothing left. The hurricane pushed everything into the bay,” Angel said.

Sand was everywhere, covering everything. The boardwalk from U.S. 1 wasn’t seen. Lobster traps that had been newly made and piled up were gone. To support the marina, lobster and stone crab fishery, new fuel tanks had to be purchased with permitted installations. Freezers, refrigerators, a new steamer and new aluminum

structures to house the retail seafood operation had to be built. Holding tanks, aerators and pumps had to be purchased.

For all intents and purposes, the former fish house and marina on a narrow spit of land at MM 74 on Lower Matecumbe Key was nothing more than a vacant lot. In less than two

years, George and Angel, with the volunteer help of relatives and friends, have rebuilt Lobster Walk better than ever.

“People still don’t know that they can now buy fuel here,” he said. “We sold gasoline to one private boat owner today. Little by little, the word will get out that we are back in operation.”

“Boats bring in their catch; nothing can be fresher. We steam our stone crabs. Everybody else boils them. That changes the taste. We sell live lobsters, fish and lobster tails. Our prices are the best in the Keys,” Angel said. She was working with Blanca to crack stone crab claws, chilled after steaming. Visitors wanted to eat them fresh at shaded picnic tables right at the marina.

“I painted those plywood signs saying ‘Live Lobster.’ People are coming back.

When we had too many lobsters we put a sign up ‘Live lobsters $3.99 a pound.’ They didn’t last long,” Angel smiled, pushed hair off her forehead, pausing only long enough to answer a customer’s question about take-away prices for jumbo stone crab claws.

Two men wanted to catch their own live lobsters from a large holding tank. Getting new tanks installed was another travail. All new tanks and pumps had to be brought in and installed after the hurricane. One man had a lobster loop.

“We had a man that wanted to snorkel in the lobster tank and catch his own lobsters by hand,” Angel laughed, watching the visitor use his loop to snag a lobster. It was quite likely he bought a bigger catch than originally intended, since he was having so much fun snagging them with his loop.

Lobster Walk is fun. There are maritime souvenirs, shells, carvings and unique art work set along the restored boardwalk.

Picnic tables in the shade offer opportunity to sit with soft drinks and eat fresh seafood prepared right there, condiments supplied.

There is always activity as trap boats pull up and weigh their catch. No matter how busy they are with repairs, George, Angel, Blanca and Big George always take time to talk with visitors.

The Cabreras plan a restaurant that will sell take-away. Visitors can choose to eat at picnic tables if they want. A fishing supply store and motor repair shop is already in place. One of the Keys' best outboard motor repair technicians works out of a converted container. She has more motor repair work than she can handle as nearby residents bring flooded motors to her to reclaim.

The Fish House, Lobster Walk and Marina are back in operation. Stop by and savor freshly steamed and chilled stone crab claws, lobster and catch of the day.

Spend a few minutes or an hour enjoying the convivial company of George and Angel Cabrera. Their inner strength, perseverance and courage, despite devastation from Hurricane Irma, have brought this Florida Keys attraction back to life.

FLOOD FORMULATIONS & THE LAW Grant pays for mapping; UF donates law advice

City of Marathon staff greet personnel from a consulting firm and law professors and students from University of Florida to begin considering how flooding might affect Marathon in the future. SARA MATTHIS/Keys Weekly

O

n March 8, a collection of law professors, law students and drone operators congregated at Marathon City Hall to start thinking about what the city will look like 11 years from now, 41 years from now, and 81 years from now. Using projections from the Southeast Florida Regional Compact on Climate Change, the group will consider not only how flood projections will affect Marathon, but also how best to mitigate them. The project is state mandated, known as the “Perils of Flood.”

The work is being performed through a grant with Bermello Ajamil and Partners, who are doing the mapping, and the University of Florida’s Center for Governmental Responsibility, which is providing the law expertise. Professor Thomas T. Ankersen is leading the charge and this isn’t his first rodeo.

“We’ve worked with Yankeetown and Punta Gorda,” Ankersen said, “but Marathon is certainly unique. It’s the furthest south we’ve worked and the city is so vulnerable with water on every side.”

According to Marathon Planning Director George Garrett, the mapping is almost complete, save some areas around the airport.

Then experts will run a model that would reflect the Compact’s estimated sea level rise of 6 to 10 inches by 2030, or 1 to 3 feet for the year 2060.

On May 21, 2015, then-Gov. Rick Scott signed into law Florida Senate Bill 1094, “An Act relating to the peril of flood.”

SB 1094 requires local governments to consider future flood risk from storm surge and sea level rise in certain portions of its comprehensive plans. Local governments have also been instructed to consider nuisance flooding.

“Of course, the further out you get, the more uncertain experts are on the actual climate change,” Ankersen said, “so I think we are going to center our estimates on a 2-foot rise by 2060. The model will show which areas of the city are most at risk as a result of additional flooding.”

The city can take the information and start thinking about some immediate solutions — like raising roads affected by nuisance flooding. Or considering what a 2-foot sea level rise would mean to infrastructure, ranging from mechanical (like a sewage plant) to natural (like an undeveloped shoreline).

“The city of Marathon looks forward to the results of the ‘Perils of Flood’ mapping and code modification effort,” Garrett said. “The data that we acquire as a result of this effort will allow the city to better plan for

the future of anticipated climate change and sea level rise. This will be crucial for protecting key City infrastructure – roads, wastewater facilities, stormwater projects, etc.”

Ankersen will work with two law students on drafting the language for Marathon’s comprehensive plan, as part of the University of Florida’s special conservation clinic.

“We draft the language so Marathon can come into compliance with the state statute,” he said, adding, “it’s a fairly technical exercise for myself and my students.”

On his trip to the Keys last week, Ankersen brought along the students in his coastal law class, including 2011 Key West High School graduate Sasha Alvarenga of Big Pine Key. “I’m just so glad that Marathon is considering this. And I think it would be really good to talk to the citizens, too,” she said.

“Do they know how imminent the danger is? Maybe they will begin to realize that if it is important enough for the city to take action, it’s something they should think of as well.”

Ankersen said one solution could be as simple as language that would require the city to create opportunities for establishing living shorelines (mangroves), and then researching ways to make that happen with tax incentives and seeking out grant opportunities.

A good flood strategy could also yield extra points under the FEMA Community Rating System that would help Marathon move to the next level of flood insurance premium reductions, Ankersen said.

“We can’t guarantee that, but that will be something that will help guide our research,” he said.

This first encounter among city staff, the law school and the mapping agency was just a “getting-to-know-you” meeting.

“The Keys people are resilient,” Ankersen said. “We need to go about making the natural and physical aspects of Marathon just as resilient.”

BRIEFLY Bocce winners crowned on Key Colony Beach The annual Bocce Ball Tournament on Feb. 21 was a highly contested event. In all, 17 four-person teams joined the competition sponsored by the Key Colony Beach Recreation Committee and organized by Bill and Doris Fox. The first place team consisted of Larry Deraney, Helen Fischer, Jim Creveling and Joann Costa. The second place team was composed of Barry Buchanan, Tom Head, Cliff Lambright and Sis Trembley.

Following the event, the group celebrated with a pot luck dinner, dancing (music by The Newmans) and fellowship at the Marathon Elks Club.

Yacht club hosts sailing benefit Marathon Yacht Club Educational Foundation is inviting the public to a special party on Saturday, March 30 at 5 p.m. to benefit the MYCEF sailing programs. The Howard Livingston Trio will play, and guests can bid on special, nautical silent auction items. Tickets are $85 per person and include a pig roast and “pain killers” at the sunset party. For more information, visit www. mycef.education.

March 29 is deadline for DEO assistance The deadline is March 29 to register for help with Hurricane Irma costs from Rebuild Florida.

“W

ine A Bit … You’ll Feel Better,” reads the sign on the door of King Seafood’s new addition. It’s the third expansion since it opened in 2011, and it now occupies three bright blue, contiguous storefronts in Marathon.

“Our hang-out bar has a big wine selection and new draft beers,” said owner Judith Silva.

The new space comes with its own calendar. Happy hour specials and $6 appetizers can be ordered from 4 to 6 p.m. every day. On Tuesday, it’s ladies night from 6 to 7 p.m. — a free glass of wine for women with the purchase of an appetizer. Every third Wednesday of the month from 6 to 7 p.m. there’s a free wine tasting.

Judith and Denny are Cuban Americans who came to the Keys from Miami in 1999.

“My husband Denny is still a commercial fisherman. He’s a workaholic,” said Judith, adding that he arrives every morning at 6 a.m. Together with their son they prep the kitchen and the market, making sure that the customers get the freshest fish and seafood.

“Little did we know eight years ago that this place was going to be such a success,” said Denny. “In the beginning, we were selling seafood and people started to ask whether we had something already prepared. So we opened just a kitchen with a stand-up eating counter. We had no cooking experience, so we gave out free food samples to get feedback. Those days we had seafood only. To keep all the customers satisfied we added deli items.

Then tables for full seated dining,” recalls Judith.

What was once just a wholesale outlet has turned into something better — a family owned restaurant and retail market.

“We raised our three children here and we are not going anywhere. That’s why we are growing our business trying to make it better,” confirmed Judith.

BACK IN SESSION RASCHEIN REVIEWS LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES

State Rep. Holly Raschein walks alongside Gov. DeSantis as session in Tallahassee convened March 5. CONTRIBUTED

JIM McCARTHY

jim@keysweekly.com

S

tate Rep. Holly Raschein had quite a busy day on March 5. The first day of session in Tallahassee, she got an early start to her morning as she met with Noah Valenstein, head of the state’s Department of Environmental Protection, to discuss the agency’s budget priorities. Then it was on to opening ceremonies where the speaker opened the 60-day session.

Following speeches by the House speaker and the Senate president, it was Gov. Ron DeSantis’ turn to outline his priorities in his State of the State address. After that, Raschein squeezed in some time to get a bite to eat before a marathon meeting where legislators went through 75 bills. She then hopped on the phone for a 15-minute interview with the Weekly.

Raschein enters her fourth and final term as representative of the Florida Keys in Tallahassee, following her victory in last November’s election. First elected in 2012, she returns to the capitol this year as a senior legislator. Raschein told the Weekly it was a pretty incredible start to the 2019 session as DeSantis’ address highlighted a variety of topics.

“The governor has made it very clear that his administration is going to move swiftly,” she said. “Right out of the gate, he asked for the resignations of the South Florida Water Management District Board, he appointed three Supreme Court justices, he has shown a lot of leadership in school safety issues in regards to the Marjory Stoneman tragedy, and he’s also taking on issues in education, encouraging us to do away with Best and Brightest and replace with a more streamlined program.”

With the environment a top priority in the Keys, Raschein says the governor’s commitment to making area water resources clean and funding for major projects like Everglades restoration is a breath of fresh air.

“Certainly, it’s a direction change from the previous administration,” she said. “He’s willing to work both chambers, and it’s very refreshing to be in a place to get things accomplished.”

A number of priorities are on Raschein’s list as session begins, one in particular being funding for the Florida Keys Stewardship Act, a significant state policy shift toward protecting the Keys’ near shore waters and lands that are critical to our delicate ecosystem.

Changing Florida Keys Community College to College of the Florida Keys, a request by the Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority for a reverse osmosis plant and a bill to reduce wind storm insurance rates are also items Raschein hopes to get through this year.

“There are lots of issues going on, and funding is always a big deal in the Keys,” she said. “There are a couple major hurricane recovery projects continuing that we’re working to get to the finish line.”

“We also need to continue to keep pressure on for environmental projects, especially for the Everglades Restoration Projects,” she continued. “That’s a big deal.

Also combating red tide and harmful algal blooms; those issues certainly aren’t going away. Coral disease is wreaking havoc on the reef and the governor put in $2.5 million, and I’d love to see that money stay in the budget.”

Raschein says it’s a wonderful opportunity to represent one of the most diverse districts in the state. Improving quality of life and the economy of the Keys has been her priority, and she says it will continue to be a priority.

“Getting things done, passing bills that support us and bring home funding for our environment and needs for our hurricane recovery, I think we have been pretty successful,” she said. “We’re such a special place in the state and have unique needs and challenges. It’s such a great honor to be able to represent the people of the Florida Keys.”

Locally, there is an estimated $20 billion worth of carbon in South Florida. Professor James Fourqurean feels people should explore this idea for both environmental and economic gain. CONTRIBUTED

SAVING SEAGRASS Plant can help the planet CHARLES FULCO

www.keysweekly.com

S

eagrass is one of those things Keys residents see every day and take for granted. But what if that ubiquitous seagrass can help save the planet from climate change? On Feb. 21, James W. Fourqurean, professor of ocean studies at Florida International University, explained this in his talk, “Saving seagrass to save the planet: blue carbon and seagrass ecosystems,” at the Murray Nelson Government Center in Key Largo.

Fourqurean explained how the planet is changing due, in part, to human activity, despite what some may believe. “Ancient carbon dioxide (CO2) is underground and we’ve done a pretty good job of getting it out over the years,” he said, presenting tables, graphs and photos to document this. This ancient CO2 comes from coal, oil — which is basically the dead bodies of the dinosaurs — as well as all the seagrass and plants from millions of years. “We are now putting all that carbon back into the atmosphere,” he said, “with undeniable effects.”

So why should we worry? CO2 in the atmosphere acts like glass in a car, trapping reflected sunlight and preventing it from escaping back to space, causing the interior of the car to heat up. This is the greenhouse effect we’ve all heard of.

If that weren’t bad enough, excess CO2 in the oceans affects their pH, making them more acidic. This process is already causing destruction of coral here in the Keys and worldwide.

So how can seagrasses help mitigate this destructive cycle?

As important as this is environmentally, like many other things, people generally only pay attention when the bottom line is at stake. To that end, carbon credits (a credit for greenhouse emissions reduced or removed from the atmosphere from an emission-reduction project, which can be used by governments, industry or private individuals to compensate for the emissions they are generating) have been in place for years for land-based industries. For instance, you can currently earn $19 per ton to not cut your trees. But more recently, this economic approach is

being explored for the oceans, specifically seagrasses.

In fact, one hectare of seagrass (about two football fields) is estimated to be worth more than $19,000 per year under the above-mentioned example, making seagrass one of the most valuable ecosystems on the planet. Locally, there is an estimated $20 billion worth of carbon in South Florida. Fourqurean feels people should explore this idea for both environmental and economic gain.

Unfortunately, seagrasses are in decline. One reason is the decline in sharks, which prey on sea turtles, which eat seagrass. Bermuda, for example, has had a 98 percent reduction

in seagrass beds in just 10 years, due in large part to “deforestation” by the turtles, which Fourqurean called “the white-tailed deer” of the ocean. As on land, invasive species also threaten native plants, and seagrasses are no exception.

Fourqurean also said that our purchasing choices can add to the carbon problem. When he asked how many in the audience ate shrimp, naturally many hands went up. He then explained how farmed shrimp production (primarily in Asia) is a cause of increased CO2 levels. Farms are moved to new locations when disease hits; each time, another area must be clearcut to make way for the new shrimp farm. When an audience member asked what could be done about this, the answer was simple, he said: don’t buy farmed shrimp, buy local! (Go to www.seafoodwatch.org for a comprehensive list of sustainable and environmentally friendly seafood sources.)

Finally, Fourqurean asked, “What are the values of different ecosystems to humans?” If we can’t convince voters and legislators to save them, then what is our future, he said. “Scientists need to explain attributes that people care about, to give them reasons they can relate to,” in order to promote environmentalism and mitigate climate change. The importance of seagrass is a perfect example. In a nutshell, “to thrive, seagrasses need clean water and more sharks in the ocean.” The Florida National Marine Sanctuary realized this in the 1990s, and wrote the original idea for legislation to protect seagrasses in Florida Bay; their work continues to this day.

BAY DAY Water is crucial topic

TIFFANY DUONG

“I

magine going to your office, and discovering a slow leak. You’d keep searching until you found it and fixed it, right?” asks Capt.

Steve Friedman, commodore of Keys Fishing Guides Association. Friedman sat on a panel to discuss Florida Bay on Feb. 22 at the Angler House Marina in Islamorada.

“Florida Bay — it’s my office,” Friedman said.

“And so, I’m asking, ‘Where’s the water? Why don’t we have enough water?’” Thinking about the answer, he adds, “Florida Bay is literally everything.

Because if we don’t have the Florida Bay, we don’t have life in Monroe County.”

Similarly, Shannon Estenoz of the Everglades Foundation, one of the evening’s hosts, prods her panelists and the audience, “What happens when the bay goes belly-up?” This ominous question looms at the edges of the panel discussion and of conversations all night.

Friedman, Estenoz and everyone in attendance agree that South Florida and the Everglades desperately need an influx of fresh water. Ecologist Jerry Noonan explains that we must bring fresh water through the Everglades to Florida Bay to restore both ecosystems. “Stop sending it east and west,” says Noonan. He goes on: “You must support Everglades restoration with everything you have, because everything you love depends on it.”

Water management in Florida is a controversial subject. Water is the basis of South Florida’s economy and culture, and its regulation and scarcity tend to elicit strong, opposing emotions from scientists, fishermen, homeowners, farmers, tourists, politicians, etc. That’s why Jessica Steinmiller, designer of the “Restore the Everglades” logo used for the event, based the design on the “yin/

yang” symbol. “It represents unity, and I wanted a way to unify all the coastal ecosystems of South Florida and put them into one symbol. The blue heron and sawgrass of the Everglades are balanced by the tarpon and seagrass of the Everglades, but they both need water. That’s the key,” said Steinmiller.

Most speakers at Florida Bay Day call for politicians to be accountable to the community by supporting Everglades. Estenoz names specific programs that could alleviate some of the stresses the Everglades and the bay are facing. She calls for investment at a scale that will actually help and for legislative support for Gov. Ron DeSantis’ new budget request, which includes $325 million for Everglades restoration. “We need more political will. It’s not just a plumbing problem,” emphasizes Estenoz.

It appears some politicians agree and are joining the community in this fight to save the Everglades and Florida Bay. Deb Gillis, the mayor of Islamorada, and Cheryl Meads, a newly appointed South Florida Water Management District governing board member, joined their constituents at Florida Bay Day to listen and learn, and Congresswoman Debbie MucarselPowell sent her district chief of staff, Daniel Horton-Diaz, with a statement in support of Everglades restoration: “A healthy Everglades system ensures that our community will have clean water, fresh food, a vibrant local economy, and a national treasure to pass on to future generations. … You have my support and I ask to continue to have yours as we work together to preserve the Everglades now and for generations to come.” To cheers and applause, Estenoz urged the audience to keep building awareness in the community and in elected officials about the crucial nature of water quality and flow in Florida Bay.

Capt. Benny Blanco, a full-time fishing guide in the Everglades and Biscayne National Parks, emphasized how events such as Florida Bay Day are crucial to bring community education and awareness to this important issue. “We see more and more events every year, and these small events, albeit tiny, are turning the tide because they’re educating the community,” said Blanco.

“The everyday person is getting involved, because people are beginning to realize that water quality affects everyone — Realtors, teachers, hotel workers,” adds Capt. Chris Wittman, owner and captain of Stillwater Charters.

A little more than three years ago, Wittman realized how degraded the bay was becoming due to lack of clean water flowing through the Everglades.

He co-founded the non-profit Captains for Clean Water to give “people like us (fishermen) a mechanism to understand the problems and solutions concerning our fisheries and water.”

The group has enjoyed steady growth in interest and membership, something Wittman attributes to growing awareness of the difficult water issues South Florida faces. “We’re just fishermen, the David in a David-and-Goliath battle to save the Florida Bay,” he said.

“But if we keep talking together and keep educating the community, we can make a difference.”

At the end of the panel discussion and community conversation, Blanco implores everyone in the room to take up the cause. “I’m gonna take this fight to my grave, or we’ll fix it before then.

And I ask you all to join me and educate others. Don’t stop till we fix this.”

Estenoz summarized the night’s importance aloud: “In the Florida Keys, this community’s voice has been and continues to be one of the most important for Everglades restoration.

It was this (Upper Keys) community and these fishermen that started it all.

Now let’s keep the conversation going, keep talking about the bay, and when it’s time, speak up! We’re going to fix Florida Bay from the bottom up!”

LIFELINE FOR NEW MOMS

Nonprofit seeks to connect pregnant women to area resources

A SAFETY NET Healthy Start offers programs for mothers and their children. CONTRIBUTED

I

LANE McKELVEY

www.keysweekly.com

n a small administrative office of a nondescript building in Key West, big things are happening for pregnant women and new mothers in the Keys.

“We are one small community, just 180 miles long,” said Arianna Nesbitt, CEO of the Keys Healthy Start Coalition, a program available to all new and expectant mothers.

“Overseas Highway is not a birth plan,” she said. “Pregnant women in the Keys can either give birth in Key West or Homestead.

That’s it. Traffic can back up quickly and resources can be limited. We want to connect those women to resources before the baby is born, and to each other after.”

“Each year, in the Keys, about 750 babies are born. We believe if we can give pregnant women the services and information they need before the baby arrives, they can begin on the right foot, regardless of income,” Nesbitt said.

One of the services offered is car seat safety, including inspections, installation, helping parents choose the right seat for the size of the child, and even in some cases providing low-cost car seats to parents. Trained car seat safety inspectors are located throughout the Keys, making it easy to meet families where they are.

“By default, we became responsible for the car-seat program.

No one was doing it.The Keys are small,so we don’t have several nonprofits covering various areas; therefore, we cover them all,” Nesbitt said.

Services for women don’t stop when the baby is born; just before

Hurricane Irma, a new program was initiated for women struggling with perinatal mood anxiety disorders, including depression.

While their children enjoy playtime through the Tot Time programs offered in Key West and Key Largo, moms can speak to a professional about the postpartum symptoms they might be experiencing.

“We contracted with a licensed therapist who is certified through Postpartum Support International to provide individual and group counseling to women who struggle with postpartum mood disorders.

‘Baby blues’ hits about 80 to 90 percent of women and many more end up with anxiety or depression; we want them to know they’re not alone — help is available,” she said.

“New parents often feel overwhelmed and many move here without parents or family nearby.

The ‘Adopt-a-Grandparent’ program was created for them. It came from a conversation I had with a 70-year-old woman when she said, ‘New moms should call me! I am awake at 3 a.m. and would love to help,’” Arianna said of the developing program.

The Keys Healthy Start offers programs to age 5, from birthing classes to breastfeeding, arts and crafts with “Tot Times” and movement through “Wiggles and Giggles.”

“We don’t expect women to call and say, ‘Hey, everything is great!’ We expect them to call and say, ‘This is really hard, and I need help,’” she said.

Wesley House expands its reach in Marathon SARA MATTHIS

H

urricane Irma wiped out the place where Melissa Tur and her twin newborn girls lived in 2017. For three months, they bunked with a local church. Then, with nowhere else to go, the small family was living out of a light blue minivan for another three months.

“The police kept telling us we couldn’t go on like that, we needed to find a place,” said Tur. So they scraped together enough for two months at a place slated for renovation. With the clock ticking, the family of four — Melissa, her twin girls now 2-1/2 Jocelyn and Jennifer, and boyfriend Junior Valerdi — were looking for yet another solution.

“It was really hard,” Melissa said.

That’s when Wesley House Family Services stepped in with the gift of six to nine months of what it calls “transitional housing.” Chief Executive Officer Beth Barrett said the agency uses it to reunite families whose only barrier is affordable housing, or keep families together who do not have safe housing.

“We give them a chance to get on their feet. They can either save enough money to be able to find a place to rent in the regular market, or have time to connect with the programs they may be eligible for,” Barrett said.

“The rent in the transitional house is significantly below market rates.”

The transitional home in Marathon is brand new, but Wesley House has operated one in Key West for four years.

“The house in Key West is now on its eighth family,” Barrett said. “All of those families are doing fantastic and we hear from them often.”

Melissa Tur and Junior Valerdi, with twin girls Jocelyn and Jennifer, have a temporary place to call home in a Wesley House facility. SARA MATTHIS/ Keys Weekly

The Marathon transitional home was made possible, in part, through a legacy from Bob Leiby of Key West.

“Bob was a smart, funny, generous and kind man,” said Wesley House Board Chair Bryan Green. “He would have been delighted by this project.”

Green said the agency has been fortunate to have wonderful supporters from the Marathon area, including Royal Furniture and the Elwell family, and wanted to purchase the second transitional home where it could be used the most, in the Middle Keys.

Indeed, the Marathon house closed on a Monday, and by Wednesday the family was settling into the cheerful house located near 109th Street. The twin girls will have their own room for the first time.

“I don’t know how I feel about that,” said their mother, Melissa. “I am used to having them sleep right next to me.”

Wesley House serves about 400 children and their families every year.

The services range from foster care, to keeping kids out of foster care, operating the Inez Martin Child Development Center, and helping expecting and new parents with programming.

The agency’s services extend from Key West to the county line.

In addition to the transitional homes, Wesley House operates three foster homes in the Keys — two in Key West and one in Plantation Key. “We are very focused on keeping families together. Even if the children need to come into foster care, we want them to stay together with their siblings as a sibling group,” Barrett said.

The “culinary gangsters” are Ailsa Eddins, Matt Kratzert, Rachel Lebo, Jordyn Wilson, and Micah Farrell. CONTRIBUTED

CULINARY MHS WINNERS Statewide competition held in Orlando SYDNEY SCHUHMACHER www.keysweekly.com

M

arathon High School teacher Carl Stanton and five of his students recently returned from the 19th annual ProStart Culinary Team Competition. Rachel Lebo, Matt Kratzert, Ailsa Eddins, Jordyn Wilson and Micah Farrell traveled to Orlando March 1-2.

“The ProStart Competition gives them exposure because they work with other ProStart students throughout the state so it’s a good chance for them to network and see what other culinary programs are doing,” said Stanton, “And there are benefits to attending — scholarships for the students, kitchen equipment, knives, culinary kits, and other things.”

There were four parts of the competition: the culinary competition, the management competition, the edible centerpiece competition, and the waiter’s relay. This year Marathon High students tackled the management competition and the edible centerpiece competition. With the management competition, students come up with a restaurant and present an “elevator pitch.” They had to think of every detail — from the floor plan to cost breakdown to the menu.

With the edible centerpiece competition, a student created a masterpiece made of fruit and vegetables.

Lebo, a senior, has earned a Salute To Excellence Award. It’s a competitive recognition — out of the 238 students up for the award, only 40 were given, including Lebo.

She placed first in the regional edible centerpiece competition last December in Daytona. Ledo said she plans

to attend Daytona State College to continue her culinary learning.

As a sophomore, Kratzert was too young to participate in the events in Orlando, but he said he treated it as a “scouting” opportunity. Next year, he said, he’ll be right in the middle of the action. Kratzert is a part of the hot food team, which came in fourth place in the regional culinary competition last December.

Eddins, Wilson and Farrell conquered the management competition, each earning a $2,000 scholarship form Keiser University. Wilson said, “After I finish the culinary program when I graduate next year, I’m planning on going up to Daytona State College and do pastry and baking for four years and then go up to Georgia and hopefully open my own shop.” Farrell said he loves the Dolphin Bistro dinners “because it’s like being a part of the industry.”

The Dolphin Bistro dinners, held next door to Stanton’s classroom at Marathon High, are fundraisers for the culinary program. A full dinner is cooked and served by the students, allowing them to flex what they learned so far. With the proceeds, Stanton and his students have been part of past competitions such as in the Master Chef Classics in Key West, Taste of the Islands in Marathon, and the Skills USA Regional Contest in Daytona. The next dinner is set for Friday, March 8 starting at 5 p.m. featuring local black and yellow snapper, a southwest chicken dish, and an array of desserts. The dinner is $20 and is a collaboration with the art department who will hold a silent auction.

IT’S HEAVY Dolphins host weightlifting meet

T

he Marathon High School weight room was packed Feb. 28 as Marathon played host to Gulliver Prep and Coral Shores for a weight lifting match.

Weight lifting is both an individual and team sport.

“Instead of focusing on an overall team score we’ve focused on the individuals and making progress in each meet,” said Marathon coach Jessie Schubert. “We have two more meets and they’re both at Gulliver prep alongside Coral Shores. We’re hoping to get about 10 guys into district competition so they’ve got to start moving some weight. Emilio Marin and Kyshaun Apollon, both seniors, have been doing a great job of leading and increasing their weight going into districts March 23 at Archbishop McCarthy High School.”

Schubert said juniors Donovan Suarez, Braylin Haymon, Brett Moore and Christian Ruiz, and newcomer Corbin Neller have shown a lot of promise. Athletes have to compete in four meets during the regular season and be ranked in the top eight lifters in their weight class to qualify for the district meet.

ith goals to bring in more students and raise more funding, Island Christian School is extending its deadline by a month.

Originally, the school had until March 1 to meet its goal of bringing in 145 full-time paying students, raise $400,000 or a combination of the two. In a letter issued to the Island Christian community recently, Senior Pastor Trevor Mann states that he wants the community to know that elders have heard and care about the community’s voice.

Recently, the community gathered at Island Christian School to hear from Mann, ask questions and generate ideas to keep the school operating past the current school year.

“Our team has formulated a plan that will maximize efforts of enrollment and designated funds,” Mann states. “From now on, every penny that would be considered a gift, designated funds or a donation will be seen as sponsoring a student.”

“With that being said, we want people to know that their money is being used to sponsor new, local students, not just funding a budget deficit,” Mann continued. “Imagine how awesome it would be to hear a radio advertisement that ICS has 50-plus sponsorships of new local students. As we move forward, our goal remains to have a pre-K-12th grade model.”

Mann, a 1993 ICS grad, said if school officials are near their goal April 1, and only a sixth or eighth grade model is viable, they will proceed accordingly. If enrollment isn’t increased or sponsorships gained to fund a portion of the school into the 2019-20 school year, “we will see it as God moving us in a different direction of ministering to the needs of this community.”

“No matter what, all sponsorships, funds and registrants will be fully refunded if there is no school or corresponding grade level (registrant fee),” he said.

ICS enrollment was down to just over 90 paying students as the 201819 school year began.

Bret Michaels pays it forward in Key West

I

ON THE GOOD SIDE OF THE DIRT

t’s hard to imagine, but rock stars act like everybody else. What does legend Bret Michaels love to do? Get in his car, turn on music and drive down the Keys, hello brother. It’s one of his favorite road trips because he “likes the vibe down here." An excellent reminder to be careful when honking at someone, it could be the former frontman for the mega band Poison and solo sensation rocker, movie and TV star. Playing Sunday, March 17 at The Key West Theater, two days after his birthday and on St. Patrick’s Day, Michaels promises the best party in town.

“It’s beyond a show but my life, a celebration,” said Michaels. “I cherry pick songs for a great time.”

Yep, all the hits including the ones from Poison like “Every Rose has its thorn” and “Talk Dirty To Me” will be there too along with his solo hits, “All I Ever Needed” and “Go That Far." He called the timing a win-win because like the Keys, Michaels tries “to take it to a whole new level.”

He is endearing, soft-spoken, and sincerely full of gratitude for his career, hairstyles and all. “Creating music has always been what I love to do. I’m gonna say the ‘80s were a great party, but we have been playing since then, and now I have three generations of fans,” said Michaels, who jokes about being called a hair band. “Hey, I’m proud of where I’ve come from; I’ve been called worse.” Like Poison’s greatest hit says it’s "Nothin' But a Good Time” for Michaels.

This concert coincides with launching his 2019 “Unbroken” tour mixing philanthropy and music.

“Unbroken” is his new single, which he co-wrote and recorded with his youngest daughter, Jorja Bleu, 13.

The #HotRocks Unbroken Challenge offers the chance for fans to win VIP prizes and donations to charities of their choice when fans post their dance moves on Instagram.

“I have been facing adversity since I was 6 years old, “ said Michaels, “and I am still on the good side of the dirt.”

He has very publicly suffered many medical miracles. Due to his diabetes diagnosed at 6, his blood sugar has caught him off guard on stage more than once. Then Michaels miraculously walked away from crashing his Ferrari during the height of Poison and rock star partying. At the 2006 Tony awards, a stage prop fell on him and later, in 2010, he recovered after suffering from a massive brain hemorrhage.

However, the upside is that Michaels uses his experience to give back.

“Having the tenacity to stay at it and get it done, I have appreciation and gratefulness to be here still. It’s a party because I’m going to pay it forward.” Michaels’ Life Rocks Foundation donates to many charities and sends children with Type 1 diabetes to camp each summer; he says giving back is at the heart of everything. Should be a helluva show.

REAL LIFE ON DISPLAY ‘ON THE HOOK’ DOCUMENTS VITAL PART OF KEY WEST

HAYS BLINCKMANN hays@keysweekly.com

H

istory is always in the making, and it’s local artists like photographer Mark Hedden who have the ingenious eye to capture it. Hedden’s new show “On The Hook” opens at the Studios of Key West on Thursday, March 7, and is more than a group of photographic portraits, but a broader picture of Key West itself.

If you live on the hook, your life is ruled by your dinghy.

There is a community living in the shallow waters just off Key West — just as vital to the fabric of Keys life as those on the rock — and it’s captivating.

Over the past year, Hedden has interviewed the residents who live “on the hook,” making their permanent home on boats moored around Key West. Men, women and

even children, known as “live-aboards” on vessels of every kind, have created floating neighborhoods. Just yards away from the shore, it could be considered the last affordable housing in the Keys. Full of interesting characters, the community has a dubious reputation for crime, but “reputation” doesn’t paint the full, vibrant picture.

“I wanted to document it for what it is, without prejudice,” said Hedden. “I have lived here 25 years, mostly landlocked. It’s a world out there that I have been curious about.” Of course, those who live on the water are saltier than most, and Hedden pursued their stories, and their portraits, free of presumption. For months, two to three times a week, he approached boats not knowing what response he would receive, requesting a photo. He did encounter some negative pushback, requests for anonymity, but for the most part, residents welcomed him aboard.

“It’s no more crime-ridden than any neighborhood in Key West,” said Hedden “We are not vertically segmented. It’s about humanizing a maligned community.” Hedden’s portraits freeze those natural windswept moments that show how easy it is to

choose life on the water over land. The fine lines in their tanned faces tell the stories, like how they survived Irma and how they commute to Key West like regular folks to make a living.

“I didn’t want the photos to look like a postcard,” said Hedden. The portraits are striking in gritty black and white. “I’ve always loved black and white work. Stuff like Josef Koudelka’s ‘Gypsies’ and Anders Petersen’s ‘Cafe Lehmitz.’ Moreover, well, anything by Sally Mann.”

A poignant look at the salt life, he leaves the realism on the page — Trump flag and middle fingers too — as well as wrinkles, battered boats and suspicious glances.

COMMERCE CORNER Mark Hedden’s “Dingy” from ‘On the Hook.’

MARK HEDDEN

In the end, the show is pared down to 25 images and typography of dinghies. “If you live on the hook, your life is ruled by your dinghy. The dinghy is a personal expression out there.”

While the here and now and everyday may seem mundane, later it will be Hedden’s eye for astounding photographs that audiences will point to and say: “Yes, that was the real Key West.”

To pursue the project, Hedden received a matching grant from the Knight Foundation, meaning he raised roughly $14,000 to complete the project, a total of $27,000. He received an Anne McKee grant, as well as donations from Florida Keys Council of the Arts, and contributions from Holly Merrill, TEAM KAUFELT, Peyton Evans, Judith & Stanley Zabar, Craig Reynolds LandscapeArchitecture, Mary Ellen’s Bar, the Green Parrot, the Marquesa Hotel, Manley deBoer Lumber, Sue Sullivan, Gerald Fritz, Meridyth and Gordon McIntosh, and Diane & Kerry Shelby.

The company’s banking subsidiary was founded in 1864 and has the 14th oldest national bank charter in the country.

FTB Advisors wealth management group has more than 300 financial professionals and about $4.8 billion in assets under management.

MUSIC & THE SEAFOOD FESTIVAL What goes better with great local seafood than great local music?

I MIKE HOWIE

mike@keysweekly.com

NEW MUSIC CELEBRATES THE KEYS

Songwriter mines surroundings for lyrics

T

he Keys are full of characters, fun and drinks.

Which suits Ty Thurman just fine. The singer-songwriter includes all of them on his new album, “Beachballs.”

For these 10 new songs, all of which he wrote or cowrote, the focus is pretty squarely on the tropical life.

And the references are sure to hit Keys residents where they live.

In "Seven Miles,” an ode to returning to a waiting partner, his lyrics provide a drive down U.S. 1, calling out Pigeon Key, Bahia Honda and “them Key West signs.”

In “Drinks Came True,” he begins: “I met you down on Duval Street.”

The album’s title cut celebrates a 70-something “seaside celebrity” and the bikini-clad women who follow as he pedals his three-wheeler.

“I’ve always written about my surroundings,” said Thurman.

The new album “has songs about the Keys and Keys characters because that’s my environment today.”

Thurman had a goal with the record: “I wanted to create a CD that would establish me as a trop rock artist. It must have worked.

I’ve recently been made an academy member” of the Trop Rock Music Association.

In addition to his solo work, he’s teaming up with his sometime musical partner Cory Young, a former Keys musician now based in Las Vegas. Young was in town recently, playing with Thurman at local gigs; the two performed at Music by the Bay in Tampa on March 3. That won’t be the last time: “We are forming a duo and band that will be known as the Bulawayos, and will be doing several shows around the country this year,” Thurman said.

Thurman will play Sunday, March 10, at Havana Jack’s in Key Colony Beach; he has regular gigs Mondays at Kiki’s Sandbar on Little Torch Key, Thursdays at Porky’s in Marathon and Fridays at Barnacle Barney’s in Marathon, as well as upcoming gigs at Overseas and Sunset Grille.

More information about the new album, and about his upcoming appearances, is at leapthecreek.com. “Beachballs” is available at leapthecreek.com and all digital stores including Amazon and iTunes.

can’t remember the first Seafood Festival I ever played; I guarantee that it was more than a couple decades ago. In those days, the festival was held on the old Marine Bank events field (now Publix) or the rocky weed-covered ground on the Marathon Airport property.

Some of my most remarkable Seafood Festival memories date back to a couple of those airport festivals. In those days, long before our Community Park amphitheater band shell, the festival “stage” was a flatbed trailer that was adorned by a makeshift shade “structure” crafted from 2-by-4s and blue tarps.

As we all know, March weather can be a bit unpredictable and turn on a dime. That particular year, a front decided to blow through on a Sunday afternoon. I think we had managed to get most of the equipment off the stage as the first winds blew through. The stage shade “structure” didn’t fare so well — the framing fell apart as the wind caught the tarps like a spinnaker on the downwind leg, and one poor stage volunteer almost followed the tarps as they blew toward the highway (he let go just in time).

One of my absolute favorite festival memories happened during the 2002 festival (if my memory serves me correct). I was in my first term as mayor in our new city, and I had come out on a Saturday to see a band featuring Singer Jen and her uncle Diego Cordova. Jamming with them that year was none other than one of Captain Diego’s backcountry fishing clients — and a legendary saxophonist and musician — the E Street Band’s Clarence Clemons.

I was aware that Clarence had been spotted routinely during those days in Islamorada at fishing events like the Redbone, and I was really glad to see him in our part of the islands. Being a musician, I was thrilled to meet him.

When Diego introduced me as a local musician and the mayor of Marathon, Clarence looked at me with my ponytail and guitar case and broke out into a big grin. He asked, “You’re the mayor?”

“Yep.” “And a musician?”

“Yep.” “This is a ****ing cool town!”

It wasn’t long after that JOHN festival that Clarence ClemBARTUS ons bought a is the mayor of house on Stirthe City of Mararup Key right thon. He also is here in Maraa musician who performs around thon. (Sorry, Islamorada.) town. For more Diego became see johnbartus. com one of Clarence’s closest friends here in the Keys, and I’m grateful to Diego for setting up one of the most incredible nights in my musical life — the night THE Clarence Clemons of THE E Street Band played with my band at Dockside. He played that night like he’d been playing with us for years. I just wish I had a recording of him blowing great sax solos on some of my songs.

It was during that Dockside gig that someone came up and requested a Bruce Springsteen song. I knew several Bruce songs as a solo act; my band only played one: “Hungry Heart.” Clarence was right by me on the stage, and when I told him the request, he said, “There’s no saxophone on ‘Hungry Heart.’”

I said right back, “I always thought there should have been.”

That big Clarence grin broke out again, and he said, “Well, let’s do it like it should have been done!” When we got to the instrumental break, he blew this monster solo that simply blew everyone away.

This is why live music will never die. There is magic when musicians come together on a stage or in a club or under a palm tree that is so beautiful and yet so ephemeral. A person really has to be there to truly experience that magic. To have been part of the magic that special night at Dockside is a memory I’ll take with me forever.

We have a stellar lineup of music at this year’s Seafood Festival. My band, Jade Storm, plays at 3 p.m. on Saturday afternoon. I hope to see you out at this year’s festival — who knows what magic awaits?

ulie Cheon, public information manager at Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority, explains: In the coming weeks Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority is replacing approximately 7,905 linear feet of aging distributing water main on Sombrero Beach Road and Sombrero Boulevard in Marathon. Major construction has already started on Sombrero Boulevard with construction on Sombrero Beach Road to follow.

Execution of this work will require daily lane closures as the mains are being placed in the traffic areas. Delays will be kept to a minimum, but should be expected throughout the project term which is scheduled to be completed in early August 2019 barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Residents and businesses will be notified in advance of all anticipated service interruptions. Unfortunately, given the nature of this type of construction, not all service interruptions may be anticipated, but FKAA and the contractor will be working together to minimize any impacts these may have within the project area should they arise.

We appreciate your patience as we work to improve our infrastructure to better serve you. For more information, please visit www. fkaa.com.

I have a horse in Islamorada and on my time off I train for horse show jumping. I love the Keys. The weather is fantastic. What more could you ask for?

Residents and visitors are encouraged to notify the office about this type of sighting, and send photos, so it can warn mariners and other Keys residents about impending weather.
