A Salty Piece
of Land
By Jimmy Buffett
_____________________________
"It's not on any
chart, but the tropical island of Cayo Loco is the perfect place to run away
from all your problems. If you're looking for a license to chill, come
along as cowboy Tully Mars takes his pony to the shore - on an unforgettable
Caribbean adventure as colorful and wonderfully bizarre as cocktail hour at your
favorite expatriate bar.
From a lovely
sunset sail in Punta Margarita to a wild spring-break foam party in San Pedro,
Tully encounters an assortment of treasure hunters, rock stars, sailors,
seaplane pilots, pirates, and even a ghost or two.
Waking from a
ganja buzz on he beach in Tulum, Tully can't believe his eyes when a 142-foot
schooner emerges out of the ocean mist. At its helm is Cleopatra
Highbourne, the eccentric 101-year-old sea captain who will take him to a
lighthouse on a salty piece of land that will change his life forever.
Once again, master
storyteller Jimmy Buffett weaves a mesmerizing tale that combines both humor and
emotional reflection. After all, one man's cathedral is another man's
fishing hole. And in Jimmy Buffett's world, paradise is just a state of
mind."
