It’s starting to come together. The carpet was installed today over the 1950’s linoleum that the Kiernans installed when they first finished out the attic. The blue industrial strength carpeting and the blue walls and ceilings of the Hatker era are now all gone. The ceilings are white and the walls beige. All the door casings and baseboards are of a 1920’s style and the new carpet is a soft beige. Everything’s neutral. Tomorrow new air-conditioning vents will be installed upstairs.
Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.
What a treat to pause for a BBQ lunch with the locals at Pearl Country Store and Barbecue on US-441 in Micanopy, Florida. It’s a taste of the Florida we remeber from our youth.
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
