p41
We went to Key West where we climbed the Key West Lighthouse.  I have now climbed all seven lighthouses in Florida that the public can climb. The others are Pensacola, St George, St Augustine, Ponce Inlet, Jupiter, and Cape Florida.  The Key West lighthouse was built in 1847 of brick.  Originally built to 66ft, 20 ft was added in 1894.  The light keepers quarters is a museum. 
We stopped by the Key West butterfly Conservatory.  They do not have a laboratory so they receive chrysalis from a farm in South America and one in Asia.  My brother's light blue shirt was a butterfly magnet as a couple butterflies landed on his shirt for a ride.
