I met Jimmy and Jane in DC, 1975. Moved to Aspen for their wedding in '77 and stayed a few. Met both Toms, but there's another character not mentioned, Groovy (RIP)

[@gagirl39]

Jimmy Buffett would visit Thomas County GA in the late 80's and early 90's. He loved it up here in S. GA.. He would hunt and rented a plantation yearly up here.. No one bothered him up here. You would see him ride around in his Range Rover and play tennis at the tennis courts at Thomasville High School. I saw him several times.

Thank you for watching Janie - these stories have more meaning now since Jimmy's passing. I have a sit down conversation coming with Chris Robinson - Jimmy's old apartment mate at 704 Waddell coming soon - some great stories about the old days down in that area of town.

[@zz1zzerks]

I lived in key west for 4 years until hurricane Irma sank my floating home. Great to see some of the places I love. Spent some nice saturdays drinking mimosas at the Back Yard. Miss you Jimmy. I am sending you a big hug.

[@missytamik9209]

Hey, thanks for doing this! Very interesting

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

Thank you for watching Missy. Since Jimmy's passing, it is even more important that we continue to listen to his music and tell his stories. By doing so we keep his memory alive and close to us. There will be more vlogs coming in the near future.

[@paulausherman727]

Another great and interesting story, I love every minute of it thank you your Knowledge Of our great friend jimmy buffett

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

I dont think many of us will ever get over losing Jimmy - but if we continue to listen to his music, live the lifestyle and tell the stories, then he will always be with us. Thank you for watching Paula.

Excellent video. I grew up in KW (teens during 1970s) crazy times, but as it was all I knew, seemed normal to me, Lol! My memories of Jimmy are of him riding on floats in the Fantasy Fest parade!

[@FRANKM1939]

Very interesting tour. I was living in the area at that time. 1967 -1973. Working at Key West Kennel Club. I used to watch Mel Fisher and crew refitting their search vessel in the early part of their venture. (They finally found the treasure) A fun part of my life.

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

Frank - thank you for watching and for sharing your story. How cool that must have been to watch Mel and his crew up close like that. Every day he would say "Today is the Day" and sure enough the day came. There's great picture of Jimmy sitting with Mel right after the discovery surrounded by silver bars and treasure. Fins up!

[@Andrew-sv6zq]

Interesting places he lived in Key West. I always enjoyed visiting down there when I was younger. Too expensive now. Way to many people discovered it and now it's a big boutique.

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

@@Andrew-sv6zq it has become very commercial and overly expensive. However like Jimmy himself said: “there’s still some magic left in this tourist town”. Know the right spots and it’s still special. Fins up!

[@johnbutler4235]

This is GOOD and looking forward to more videos

[@marygurley9578]

Do you do a tour of Jimmy's places he lived in while in Key West today? Very informative and interesting, Thank you!

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

Wow! What a phenomenally informative video. This video reminds me of the walking tour "Trails of Margaritaville" that I took on my 2nd visit to The Rock. I also had the honorable pleasure of meeting Captain Tony, in July of 2008. Thank you SO much for this video!

[@mariadominguez5845]

Remembering my favorite guy, Jimmy Buffett …RIP ❤️🙏😇

[@robertmusacchio3088]

btw I knew Jimmy slightly in the '70's, met him in NY at the Bottom Line and then did some art projects for him. I had the Waddell Ave address to send him the artwork, though at first he was reluctant to give it out. He was a very gracious individual, as well as a great tunesmith. The planet is significantly poorer in a Jimmyless World

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

Thank you for watching and sharing your story too! Yes this world won't be the same without Jimmy. The best we can do is carry on, keep the music and the stories alive. Fins up Robert!

[@SoSwoll]

Great video! I've been to Key West 3 times and never saw any of these places (except some of the more famous bars). So is the Waddell st house the place Jimmy was getting out of bed around noonish for the film crew in the beginning of Tales from Margaritavision?

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

Yest - that scene from Margaritavision was part of a special called "Introducing Jimmy Buffett". That was his bedroom and there is a scene with an older lady standing outside on the front porch. Also a part of that special was video clip for Nautical Wheelers which was filmed at the Lantern Inn - now its Chicos Restaurant. That is in my top 10 list part 1.

[@SoSwoll]

@@allthestoriesicantell7595 thanks. I have Margaritavision on VHS but can only watch it now on KZbin. Nautical Wheelers is one of my all time faves. At least I have some new places to check out next time I get down there!

Been there done that, lost my heart in key west the first time I was there

[@scottvaughn7824]

I lived in Islamorada, Tavernier but south of Tavernier Creek Bridge, for 25 years. Every time I went to Key West I walked the Cemetery. Favorite bar and entertainer? Smokin’ Tuna (sold) Caffeine Carl and the Buzz.

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

Great choices - I love the Smokin Tuna. Going to be interesting to see the new location. Thank you for watching. Tavernier gets a mention one JB song: Meet me In Memphis. Fins up!

[@jeffkenyon483]

@8:45 should of been like going to a funeral as you realize mortality is only a heart beat away.

[@jeffkenyon483]

It is better to go to a funeral,than a party.

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

We never know how much time we have left - and to think Jimmy knew for 4 years what the outcome was going to be - it makes me admire him even more, if thats possible.

[@trumpdesantis243]

Come to the gulf coast and do a video of where he grew up at, born in Pascagoula raised in Mobile and Fairhope, visit the places that inspired so many of his songs, see the old Krispy Kreme building he used to ride his bicycle to as a kid, and eat at the Dew Drop Inn where his love of cheese burgers was born, his grandparents and parents lived and died here, his sister Lucy and extended family still lives here.

[@robertmusacchio3088]

How could "A White Sports Coat and a ..., " not be your favorite Jimmy Buffett LP ? Every song is a classic, & some are, in my opinion, the finest he ever wrote. But I would rank "A1A" as the second best JB LP.

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

I guess it's like trying to decide which of your kids or dogs are your favorite - you love them all and depending on your mood the list can change! It's a fun debate to have.

[@JoeBlow-fp5ng]

Is Key West now so expensive you have to be wealthy to live there? I'm guessing yes, but all the people who work in the hospitality industry down there must live too so how do they afford it?

[@allthestoriesicantell7595]

Affordable housing continues to be the #1 issue in Key West and the Keys in general.

[@sallyreno6296]

Yes. So much for "positive attention." sigh.

[@RaptorCircle]

Anyone know why he left key west?
