Lynne has been fascinated with Karen’s loom ever since her first visit to Tween Creeks. Â Today she mentioned that she would like to try her hand at weaving. Since the loom was warped, that was an easy wish to fulfill. Now after a brief tutorial on treadling for a simple twill and a few spindles full of calypso colored chenille yarn, she’s well on her way to completing a beautiful scarf. Thankfully she has made plans to extend her visit one more day…
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!
HA!, had me confused until I learned “warped” meant something different when referring to the loom/weaving and not the wood it’s made of.
