BILL THOMPSON'S Marathon Yacht Basin - Silver King Cottages "Cruising and fishing Crossroads of the Keys" Phone 2911 Marathon, Florida Dear Folks: After looking at several places we selected Bill Thompson's accommodations at Marathon and believe that it is the real "Treasure of the Florida Keys." We have the nicest two-bedroom apartment, with a complete electric kitchen, and are as comfortable as if we were at home. Our maid comes in every morning and does the necessary cleaning, and for a little extra will do the dishes and some laundry for us. Tom and Lucille have a one-bedroom, living room and kitchen unit and declare they did not know how comfortable it could be on the KEYS. We have met a wonderful couple from Cleveland who are enjoying a hotel room. It just seems that everyone is pleased and contented here at Bill's. They all remark on how cool and pleasant this "Florida Living" can be in a well designed and furnished building. Our front view is the blue-green water of Florida Bay, spotted with the white of small fishing skiffs with outboards and the larger craft of the charter captains. One of our favorite sights is the coming and going of the private yachts that fill the spacious docks of this perfectly protected harbor. Must close now as it is time for us to join the children in the salt water pool and I have to get Jim out of Bill's tackle shop where they are talking fishing. Henrietta
