Crossing from Georgia into Alabama on US 411. If memory serves us correctly family members traveled US 411 at least part of thw way from Cincinnati to St Petersburg in the pre-interstate highway days although they would not have been this far west. We are headed to a city park in Gadsden, Noccalula Falls for tonight’s sojourn. Dinner menu is Deck Day leftover Italian Sausage and baked beans augmented with grilled onions and accompanied by brown ale or Appleton in Cherry Coke. Tomorrow we may check out some local options then head to Mobile.
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!
