 His ashes made it to Florida! So one of the owners of a hotel, Judi was
 walking
 on the beach this morning cleaning up the junk that washed into shore and
 finds a bottle with a message in it. There is also some sand and 2 one dollar
 bills. Once we get it open and read the notes we find out that it is in fact NOT
 sand. It is the ashes of this woman's husband of 70 years named Gordon. She
 writes that He loved to travel so she sent him traveling in a bottle with a note
 and money for someone to call home and tell her where he landed. He started
 at Big Pine Key in March of 2012 and then went to Islamerada where someone
 found him. They added a note and sent him traveling again and he landed on
 our beach in Key Colony. Judi called the wife in Tennessee who was excited to
 know of Gordon's travels! Judi added her note, we put him in a rum bottle (you
 know added a little fun to his trip) with the three notes. We added another
 dollar in case Gordon travels far and a long distance call is needed. We willl be
 having a memorial service or celebration of his life on our beach later today
 before sending him on his way again
