Matt, Emily, and Cathy thought they were on vacation but we tricked them into helping us move all of our books from our downstairs library to our upstairs loft. Tomorrow our remodeling project begins. After that task was done we ventured over to Riverwood to see some of the artists at work. We visited with Karen in the Pottery and Kathy in the Weaving Studio. Once back at the house Emily got to indulge in her passion for finding live treasures in our mountain stream.
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.
