Soo change of plans. Neither my best friend nor my mother want to be cold AT ALL so I'm sol for now. Instead they wanted warm weather but don't plan on hitting the beach which is okay by me. So I figured why not suggest the keys and it sounds like it's gonna happen. Which also means I get to completely indulge on my cigar hunger once down there. Unsure of dates but looking at early December right now. 2 day stay in Miami then a drive down to Marathon to stay at a place there for about 6 days. Hitting up Key West at one point and all the lovely (cigar) places along the way.
