On Sunday Dave put a post on our family web pages about the pancakes he and Riley cooked up to celebrate a snowy day. Greg responded with news that he and Rachel had made pancakes because they seem just right on a snowy day. So while we still have snow on the ground, we whipped up a mess of blueberry buckwheat pancakes. Later in the day we ventured out to find that the snow is all gone everywhere but our yard. We went into the the post office to rent a box. Now we have a North Carolina address!
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!
The warmth we anticipated when we headed to the Caribbean in mid-January didn’t really materialize but the fun we had with our dancing friends and the great crew of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander more than made up for the not so favorable weather.
