Can you pick your top 10 Kenny Chesney songs? Tough job to be sure. I got a great email last week from a Castaway named Ryan E., right off the bat I knew I already liked this guy. We Ryan's have to stick together! He told me that he lives in the land locked city of Nashville and is pondering a move to live by the sea in sunny Florida. Stop me if you've heard this story before. At the end of his … [Read more...]
Chesney is jumping for joy for a lot of reason I'm sure. First off, I want to thank everyone for participating in the contest. You guys are what make The Coconut Connection work! Thank you. Our contest was to come up with the best, most creative caption for this photo of Kenny Chesney jumping for joy and the beautiful Marisa Miller. We received some great comments here on the site and on our … [Read more...]
"Come Monday" this "Jolly Mon" will be sitting in an "Old Blue Chair" "On the Coast of Somewhere Beautiful" or in that "One Particular Harbor" enjoying a "Beer in Mexico" or a "Cheeseburger in Paradise", just trying to enjoy my "Floridays". Catchy right? Eh, maybe not. Jimmy Buffett and Kenny Chesney tap into a part of our psyche that yearns to break free from societies handcuffs and pushes us … [Read more...]
It's photo caption contest time! The last Kenny Chesney photo caption contest went so well I had to do another. In this photo, Kenny Chesney and New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton are celebrating after the super bowl win. Looks like they're singing a tune together. But what are they singing? Leave a comment and tell me what song they are singing. Is it one of Kenny's songs or … [Read more...]
Just a quick note. No Shoes Radio, Kenny Chesney's online radio station did a site redesign. The new look is flash based (that's nerd talk for interactive), it's advertising bar on the left now slides out and shows you bottles of Corona. I hate when Coronas pop out of the side of my screen. Makes me thirsty. On the left they have a Twitter button so you can read their feed. A Facebook … [Read more...]
Every day I come to work, warm up the computer and the first thing I do is go to No Shoes Radio. It's Kenny Chesney's online streaming radio channel and it's the perfect thing to listen to throughout the day. I know what your thinking, Chesney is great but I couldn't listen to him all day. Nor could I. But the channel plays so much more than just Chesney's music. It plays the likes of … [Read more...]
Who's cold out there, a raise of hands. Put your hands down, I can't see you. In light of the arctic circle slipping south to cover the entire United States, I thought this week's music Monday needed to warm things up. Who's cold out there?! I live in southwest Florida and it was below freezing last night. Not a fan. One of my favorite Kenny Chesney songs is Summertime. It has an … [Read more...]
You have your classic Christmas tunes such as Silent Night, Jingle Bells and Frosty but what about the non-traditional. What about ones that put your mind not on the snow and decorated pine trees but firmly place your feet in the sand as your eyes take in the wonder of Coconut Palms decked out in sparkling Christmas lights. That screams non-traditional to me! My favorite island vibe … [Read more...]
A tattoo is powerful symbol that communicates to its owner and to its audience. I don't think they are something that should not be taken lightly and that a great deal of thought needs to go into them, after all its going to be apart of you forever. My first tattoo is of my initials, "RV"and is on my right shoulder. I got it in the great city Chicago in 2004 I believe. It's small and … [Read more...]

I want to have a little fun with this post. This is for all you Chesney fans, any out there? The picture below is from Kenny Chesney's No Shoes Radio site, one of my favorites, it has his old blue chair, the sparkling Caribbean and an ownerless cowboy hat. Let's have a photo caption contest! Tell me...Where you think Kenny Chesney is. He's not in his chair, so what's he doing? Leave … [Read more...]

Who I am and Why I Write - Close your eyes and remove yourself from the everyday. Picture your toes sinking into the sand as the waves kiss your ankles and listen to the coconut palms rustle in the gentle sea breeze. That’s a nice feeling isn’t it? I live a little bit of that life and want to share my tropical dreams with you. My name is Ryan and I hale from the land-locked, can’t get any further from the ocean, state of Kansas. I moved to laid back southwest Florida back in 2001 and have … Read More
