Winner of the Florida Book Award, Gold Medal for Nonfiction "A tall but telescopic-sight-true tale of Hunter Thompson, Jimmy Buffett, Tom McGuane, and a large cavorting cast running around with sand in their shoes at 'ground zero for lust and greed and most of the other deadly sins' Key West."--Tom Wolfe "An engrossing tell-all in which Key West's most notable residents struggle to find sanity, sobriety and a place to call home."--Kirkus Reviews "A necessary read for fans of Florida fiction or any of the figures included here, as well as for those traveling to Key West."--Library Journal "McKeen's portrait of Key West as a onetime bohemian utopia and hotspot is atmospheric, and . . . his anecdotes are absorbing."--Publishers Weekly "A romp . . . a rollicking chronicle of the musicians, artists, writers and filmmakers who created a vibrant if nihilistic scene in the 1970s. Deft storytelling . . . a good story about good times (and bad)."--Wall Street Journal "Only enhances the appeal of the Conch Republic . . . a tale of the island's famous personalities that flows as easily as an ocean breeze." --Orlando Sentinel "Make McKeen's tale your next trip to the island."--South Florida Sun-Sentinel "A wonderful zinger of a book. Never before have the literary traditions of the Conch Republic been mined for such gold nugget anecdotes."--Douglas Brinkley Mile Marker Zero tells the story of how a league of great American writers and artists found their identities in Key West and maintained their friendships over the decades, despite oceans of booze and boatloads of pot, through serial marriages and sexual escapades, in that dangerous paradise. Here are true tales of a generation that invented, reinvented, and found itself at the unending cocktail party at the end--and the beginning--of America's highway.

LOYEE 8‑Pack Puppy Toys — Cheap, Tough, and My Pup Loves ’Em
Style: 8 - Pack Frog
I grabbed these LOYEE toys because my little teacup dog needed something to chew when the boys are loud and I’m making lunches. For the price they’re surprisingly durable — survived a few rough play sessions without falling apart — and the different shapes keep her interested so she’s not chewing shoes. They’re soft enough that the twins can toss them without hurting the pup, and washing them is easy when they get drool or dirt on them. If you need an inexpensive pack to keep a small dog entertained and not chewing up your tools or kids’ stuff, these do the job.

All the plush type toys and the frog have a great squeak toy in them that isn't too loud like most!! All are a decent size and have kept my girl entertained since I opened the package!! Love that they are bright and vibrant colors and seem to be very good quality!! My 9lh Chihuahua for size reference 😂 actually she wouldn't stop trying to steal them when I was taking the pictures lol. She especially loves the big frog and ball that you can put snacks into! The red bone seems to be a very hard durable plastic so she won't be able to chew it Into small pieces and choke, so very safe!

Chew ball and carrot only things to last.
The chew ball is awesome. Lasts forever. The carrot and multicolored rope bone also last and are very durable. The flamingo lasted ten minutes and the stuffing went everywhere quickly, I converted it into a makeshift smaller rope chew, lol. The banana had appeal….but my dogs destroyed it in two days. I liked the banana but it is flimsy. So far I’ve sequestered the Star and “meat” toys, they don’t look to durable. It’s a cheap product so you get what it’s worth. I wanted a cool flamingo but the flamingo was the easiest for my Brussels Griffon to destroy. All in all the carrot and chew ball are good but the rest not so much. Two stars.
