Woke up to rain, lots of rain. Did some temporary measures for rainwater diversion using aluminum foil to keep water away from the house. We’ll do more permanent measures someday soon. Meanwhile we were amazed at how quickly our little streams become swollen and fast flowing. Besides wandering around in the pouring rain, we spent the day unpacking and trying to find homes for our stuff. We found the rest of the floor of the study. Now it’s a room, not a storage unit!
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!
