No matter where you live or what you do, time seems to escape us. How many times have we referred to "time flying". Despite our best intentions, popular destinations and points of interest in our own backyard that are enjoyed by visitors are always on our "things to do and see list".

What are you waiting for?" A staycation to Key West is just what the "ho-hum" doctor ordered.
