5) Is there an airport about 300 miles north of Key West that
would make a good place to stop for fuel/food? (I'm trying to
keep legs to about 300 nm each so that I'm only flying about 2 hours
before stopping, since my wife won't tolerate being in the plane
much longer than that -- plane cruises at about 155 knots).

David,
I would have to say that depending on your route through the state of
Florida you may find some of the following airports to have positive
comments on Airnav.

SGJ - Scenic flight path along the ocean along with great restaurant.
ORL - Great stopover and rest stop. (No food on field available.)
DAB - Seaside with plenty to see and do while on rest stop.
TIX - Nice cozy little hamburger joint if you get there before 3pm (closing
time).

Once past central Florida you will be dealing with air traffic for PBI / FLL
/ MIA
on one side of the state and Everglades swampland on the other.

P.S. CDK on the westcoast of Florida is a must on your way back up.
