In the book tales from Maragritaville? The horse on the shrimp boat is in the book " salty piece of land". I have no idea the name of the boat? Heck of an adventure though! The bubble party started out good, but kind of bit him in the butt before it was over! Lol. I love that book! " A pirate looks at 50" has some good short stories as well.

Found his music over 20 years ago. He got me through quite a few rough patches in life. Fair winds & following seas Jimmy.

Have a good one. All good. Not comparing him at all, just saying some do deserve harsh trestment. I always post the same when folks say ALL veterans should be worshipped. Like I said earlier, saw a fair number of Buffett shows long time ago, and enjoyed them. But honestly, me, him, and the world are all different than we were 40 years ago.

Having said that and how much I liked him, a lot of the people down in FL did not care for him due to his views on the manatees and other things that he lobbied for and got a lot of stupid laws passed.

They had 25 cent margaritas to clear the excess inventory they made. One of our friends had a $50.00 bill and 7 cents in change. When he went to pay for his margarita with the $50.00, the bartender asked if he had anything smaller. Steve dug the 7 cents out of his pocket. The bartender said "Close enough." and scooped the 7 cents out of his hand. I suspect millions of margaritas are being downed in remembrance of Jimmy. May he rest in peace. Keith
