The Easter Bunny came early Sunday morning then after breakfast we went to Easter Mass at St Michael’s. While Rhonda cooked up an awesome feast Riley helped Nana clean the beaters and helped Grandpop solve a diabolical Sudoku game.
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.
It was fun having you. I think we just finished the ham leftovers!
Definitely have to say that that was a good ham. We really enjoyed the ham sandwiches on the road both Monday and Wednesday. Can’t wait for the next visit. Hugs to all.
