While Buffett was born in Mississippi and raised in Alabama, Florida was a special place for him.
He took a “fateful” trip to Key West in 1971, which inspired him to combine his loves for music, travel and storytelling, according to his website. It was there that he found his voice as a songwriter.His A1A album was released in December 1974, including the song “Trying to Reason With Hurricane Season,” which mentions the coastal highway.
If the bill gets passed, the state road will be renamed “Jimmy Buffett Memorial Highway” in all Florida counties on the East Coast. “All of those portions of S.R. A1A located in Monroe, Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Indian River, Brevard, Volusia, Flagler, St. Johns, Duval, and Nassau Counties” would get the new highway name, if passed.
