John Bartus & Storm Watch are the Saturday Night headliners at Conchtoberfest 2011, held at Hawks Cay Resort at Mile Marker 61 on Duck Key, Sept. 30 - Oct. 2. In addition, John will play two solo sets, Friday evenin g at 5:00 p.m., and Saturday at 11:00 a.m. "Were excited to be a part of this festival in its second year," John says, "and everyone should try and make an excuse to come to the Keys for this great fall event!"
Conch and Florida Keys Seafood are feature dishes, and there will be ten different beers on tap to quench the autumnal thirst. A vendors market featuring arts and crafts, as well as cooking demonstrations and fun for the entire family will make Conchtoberfest one of our islands' great events!

I just watched the last launch of the Space Shuttle program, and as someone who grew up at the Cape in the 1960s, I had a tear in my eye. I wrote an article for my Marathon & the Middle Florida Keys Magazine about our 50 years of launching people into space – it can be read on my Blog page.
Additionally, it can be seen as it appeared on pages 14-15 with color photos from NASA at: http://floridakeysmagazines.com
In recognition of today’s final flight of Atlantis, as well as all those associated with the space program for the past half-century, my tribute to the Challenger (and Columbia and Apollo 1) astronauts, “Dawn’s Early Light,” will be available as a free download for a limited time. Find it on the Music page.
