Key West commemorates one of its most famous residents July 15-20 with the annual Hemingway Days celebration.Ernest Hemingway lived on the island throughout the 1930s. He had a writing studio on Whitehead Street, fished in local waters and had a cat with extra toes whose descendants still wander the grounds of the Ernest Hemingway Museum and Home.The July event includes a look-alike contest, readings and presentations, and a three-day marlin-fishing tournament.The festival's biggest literary event is a Hemingway short story competition. Winners will be announced July 18 by Lorian Hemingway, a Pulitzer Prize-nominated author and Ernest's granddaughter, at Casa Antigua, 314 Simonton St., where Ernest Hemingway once stayed. The contest is in its 28th year.
