Still AMAZED by the Dollar Bar at Cabbage Key

Walking into the the main dining area of the Cabbage Key Inn was a memorable experience. I heard the story of the Dollar Bar before I got to the historic inn, but when you actually see a room covered and decorated in layers upon layers of dollar bills, it is an unforgettable sight.

I loved reading what people wrote on their dollar bills posted to the walls and ceilings of the restaurant to make their dollars noticable. Lots of declarations of love, family names and the date in which they visited, and catching phrases like "I Rock", and my absolute favorite, "My husband is da bomb".

What fascinates me is that these dollar bills will stay on those walls and ceilings for what could be decades. Sure, they fall off little by little, but it must take YEARS before the Inn collects $70.000 to give to the Hurricane Katrina relief (great cause by the way guys!).

If you take a visit to the Cabbage Key Inn, look for the TV HIDEAWAYS dollar bill right above Jimmy Buffet and just below JFK Jr.

We are going down in history!
