And museum in key west. ive been there. its where hemingway wrote some amazing literature like "farewell to arms." were going to go to it. that curator is going to stick it out. its not much of a house except for the history. by the way, even as the national hurricane center says it youre in the keys, it may not be survivable, that guy is sticking. plus, 5.6 million people have been ordered to leave south florida in advance of hurricane irma. what about those who cant get out? looks like the r...
