7 Mile Bridge
No, we didn’t hike 7-miles. More like 3, out and back on a defunct section of the old bridge, now used as a fishing pier. This was one of the only places we could get out for a long loose walk in the Keys. Rule of the Roadtrip #2 is take a long walk somewhere new everyday. My dogs are consummate road trip professionals, as long as they get at least one good walk a day. A tired dog is a good dog! And what’s good for them is also good for me…

Little Stormy Key. What’s that white cross in the water? I assume an old structure related to the bridge, but your guess is as good as mine.

The End of the Line. These bridges have appeared in several movies, including True Lies, one of the Fast & Furious movies, License to Kill and Up Close & Personal.

The White Cross in your pic is known as a “wheel ditch.” It is 2 scars in the vegetation of shallow areas caused by someone running an outboard engine in shallow water. The keys are covered in them. If you look at the shallow areas on the gulf side of the keys using google maps, you can see zillions of them. Love your blog.
p.s. There is a small dog friendly beach in KW next to Louise’s Backyard restaurant.
Love your pictures, the last water/sky shot is my favourite [well, along with the second last dog shot. Who knew my Henry had a short hair Doppelgänger!!!??? ^_^] and I always like a good film reference – the camp site I’ve just chosen for next weekend was apparently used as the Chinese village in Tomb Raider 2 [see, and if I hadn’t just read your post I wouldn’t have been able to share my newly found fact with anyone so thank you for that, ha!]
Until next time,
Babs from North Wales ^_^
Very nice pictures 🙂
Awesome walk!
