It’s been a great Christmas week here at Tween Creeks! Gary arrived on Sunday and since then we have ventured out little. Mostly we have stayed here at the house, feasted on home cooked meals, chatted long-distance with our kids, watched Christmas movies, and just enjoyed one another’s company. We’ve also enjoyed several Christmas concerts on Qello. Gary particularly enjoyed the Faith Hill Christmas Concert. We were all tickled by a rendition of The Twelve Days of Christmas by the a cappella group Straight, No Chaser. Check it out here! The two of us participated in a beautiful Mass at Living Waters Reflection Center on Christmas morning. Then today we went into high gear getting ready to depart on a southbound trip early tomorrow. Besides packing, we had to de-Christmas the house. After all was packed up and stored away we found a few stragglers: 3 Santa statuettes, 2 Holiday towels, and a Christmas book on a coffee table. Oh, yes, and the Fraser Fir wreath from Bryson’s, but we intended to leave that hanging outdoors at least until we get home. Now to settle into a chair in the living room and raise a toast to a delightful Christmas visit!

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

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.

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

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!
