We spent today in search of new adventures in Grand Teton National Park. At the suggestion of a park ranger we hiked near String Lake where the mountains seem to come up out of the water. We explored a little in the Laurence S. Rockefeller Preserve to learn more about the area and more about the family that was so instrumental in bringing about this and other national parks that we love. We left via Moose Wilson Road and drove through the Teton Pass and headed for Arco, Idaho where we camped at the KOA in view of their treasured “Numbers Mountain” where high school seniors have painted their graduation years since 1920. Had a fun little “party” with the campground host and another guest.
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!
