Recent Facebook post and reader comments inspired by former Key West resident living near Seattle, Washington.
- Diane Zell I see how our Governor Inslee has handled this crisis with intelligence, organization & now asking for help from companies here. You would not believe how much is happening here in Washington. Why,? Inslee is treating people with respect & wow! Its working. There is a whole different consciousness here in the northwest. Thats why ,i am negative about my old town of key west. I see the greed,the lack of community. Its always been dog eat dog. I agree with Bill Gates. I think we can learn & grow as humans from this.
- Sloan Bashinsky Maybe I should move to Washington if I survive this thriller? I spent a little while in Seattle in 1999, it seemed to have good energy. I hope we do learn & grow as humans from this, but right now looks kinda like never ending Star Wars serial.
- Sloan Bashinsky Key West and the Florida Keys shut themselves down. Sheriff roadblock at top of Keys turning away all but Keys residents and essential service and products providers. All Key West businesses closed except for essential service providers and restaurants and bars providing take out only. Most beaches and parks closed. Hotels, motels, etc. closed. Businesses closing for good. Might be very different there after this trial passes, when it passes, if it passes. Might be very different in America. Maybe even more reason to move to Washington?
- Diane Zell Sloan Bashinsky Sure, i will always cherish my years in key west. I used to pick husbands that seemed glamorous too! Ha! Priorities changed for me. Instead of glamorous, i choose good drinking water. I choose mountains,hiking& a climate that is temperate. I never need an air conditioner. I hate em. I spend $300 a Year! To heat my house,pellet stove. Did i mention the beautiful produce. They had to drag me out of key west,thought i couldnt live anywhere else. I love knowing i drink the water i see out my window. Will always love the island but so thankful, i got off the rock.
- Diane Zell Sloan Bashinsky key west shut down,just in time!! I live close to Mt. RAINIER. 40 miles south of Seattle
- Sloan Bashinsky You describe the kinda place once upon a time I thought I would take up residence, build an environmental home, grow my own vegetables and fruit, write books, with a lady I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. Then, God showed up and everything changed, including different kinds of ladies than I had tried to run rivers with, then very different kinds of rivers. I had so many changes, plans that didn't work out, rough times, that this shut-in time is kinda like coasting by comparison. I don't miss Key West or the Keys, but I have good friends there and telephone and internet keeps us in touch.
