TOP: This sign, depicting an unusually affectionate octopus, graces the front of a keys camera store.
This mural, on the side of a bait shop/gas station, shows Calusa Indian maidens playing Show and Tell.
Back in the early 60's this was a private museum called "Art Mckee's Sunken Treasure Fortress." Dad and I were members of Art's "Treasure Diver's Club." While neither dad nor I ever went "treasure diving", we attended some lectures and slide shows, along with about a dozen other folks, including Mickey Spillane and his pnuematic blonde girlfriend, who could upstage any lecturer just by showing up. The original Fortress still stands, complete with hokey ramparts and parapets, but the museum it once housed is long gone, replaced by a Montessori School. The giant spiney lobster out front is a new addition.
BOTTOM: For those lacking families of their own, Key West's Southernmost Point marker sports a ready-made black family on one side, and a Japanese family on the other.
