150 miles of this from Miami to Key West. I wonder if this would be enough water for you folks, you seem to enjoy it so much. All we ride around in is Cadillac cars. They are a dime a dozen down here. Mother was out in one all last night. I was tired and turned the trip down. Love to all. Did you get the fruit we sent? Mother & Dad.Language
