Wow! This has been on Our List for ever so long. We’re at Dinosaur National Monument in Utah! It’s another of those places where we must come back! This time we arrived just after two busloads of Roads Scholars so it was crazy busy. We took the tram up to the quarry where Earl Douglass first excavated dinosaur bones for the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh and marveled at the incredible density of fossils. We got to touch real fossils in- situ. It was incredible to see so many dinosaur bones all in one place!
Notice the Camarasaurus skull in the upper right of the photo!
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!
