 Afternoon with the boys. John Frinzi, Jim Morris and Sunny Jim stopped by and played a couple happy hours a few weeks past and it don’t get any better than that. The guests got their socks blown off having had no idea that the happy minstrels were stopping by. Elizabeth and Brady were swaying to the beat and she said the crowd had a ball. Well to make a long story short check out the boys by the pool. Afternoon with the boys. It’s worth to listen to get a feel for what the guys are all about. Like a step back in time. See ya, Mike  February 11, 2010
 Angles Nest Now that the Eden House ‘Regulaaaars’ giveaway has ended, it is time to put the finishing touches on the Texas giveaway. That’s right – for a seven and a four night stays at the beautiful Angel’s Nest. We have gotten some a pretty good response but it could be better. Don’t blame it on the economy – it is just a stamp and postcard. If you win, you can go to the Dr. Pepper bottling plant in Dublin, Texas where they still use pure cane sugar in their Dr. Pepper. The taste is amazing – cane sugar really makes a difference. To us Dr. Pepper freaks it is like a fine brandy. The plant bottles on Wednesdays and they have a very good deli on site. If you can’t make it to Weatherford (just outside Dallas/Ft. Worth) you can pass your stay along to a friend. Would this be called re gifting? We’ll have the drawing in March. Yes, your stay can be broken up into a couple stays or split up between a couple couples if you like. Candice will make it happen and she lays out one mean breakfasts. Put your info on as a strange post card and we will do the rest. Give us a call 800-533-5397 (KEYS) or drop us an email at info@edenhouse.com and check for availability. Don’t delay!  John Frinzi Ronny Elliott and lovely new wife, Dawn were down over Fantasy Fest week. Ronny is a great musician and needless to say, we have talked music for years. I never tire of hearing him tell stories about artists that he has performed with or folks in the industry. On this visit Ronny turned me onto an amazing musician, Dan Reeder, who is on John Prine’s label, Oh Boy! Records. Do yourself a favor and check Mr. Reeder out. Just enough profanity to spice things up. John Frinzi, Jim Morris and Sunny Jim stopped by the Eden House last Friday and Saturday and played during happy hour. WOW! It doesn’t get any better than that. Tom Corcoran slipped in wielding a bottle of wine and his trusty camera. This photo is a result of a good bottle of wine, a steady hand and a pair of aging eyes. Thanks John, Jim, Sunny Jim and Tom. You’re always welcome at the Eden House. Tom just sent me this YouTube video – check it out you won’t be disappointed. Deb and John Koch were down for the month of January – staying on one of the Torch Keys. Coll and I got together with them a couple times and sure wish they would wipe that ‘shit eatin’ grin off their faces’. I think this is a prelude of what the future holds for these two free spirits. Terry Davis and Dave (love of Terry’s life) were down over New Years. Terry ran the Eden House back in those insane late 70’s. If you passed through back then you know full well what I am talking ‘bout. What happened in Key West is the 70’s….stayed in the 70’s. Iggy Pop once said, “I don’t do drugs any more but I still think high.  Haiti I want to start off by thanking everyone for all the support you have given the people of Haiti. It is hard to believe that Haiti could get any worse off and then BAM! If it weren’t for bad luck the people of Haiti would have no luck at all. I sent some shirts over that were just on the verge of making a come back…in style, that is. They would have been HOT when the sequel to ‘Dance Fever’ goes into production in 2015. Yep, that’s why they were on the first Coast Guard Cutter leaving Key West. I’ve often heard the line, if you haven’t worn it for X amount of months get rid of it. Their time had come.  Pasha Pasha is entering her 12th year with Eden House. She is such a special person person and has meant so much to the Eden House and our guests it is hard to put into words. She always seems to to remember when a guest wants an extra pillow or blanket and has it in their room when they arrive. She has been known to go to yard sales and pick up an item or two for a guest’s child and have them in a cardboard box when they next return. This is just Pasha . I have been kidding her for years that her English is getting worse. Little does she know, I’m not kidding. She always has a smile on her face and the glass is always half full for her.

 Verulix With the weather you guys are getting up there you might be interested in the Verilux Natural Spectrum lamp. I might add, it has been damn cold here lately too. Anyone out there using this lamp or one like it and have an opinion to share? Stay in touch, Mike November 18, 2009
 Esquire Magazine Like the book of matches says, “close cover before striking”. Well, “set down before reading.” This article will blow your socks off as well as the doors. Push on through to the other side. Esquire is one of my favorite magazines and the price ain’t bad either – $8 for 12 monthly issues (lots of lists too). December is my favorite issue, which includes the BEST & BRIGHTEST 2009. If you have the time and are so inclined, send the article link to your congressman or woman and tell them to get off their duff and get on board. The train is leaving the station. Stay tuned. |
