In the wee small hours of this morning a band of thunderstorms rolled through southwestern Ohio interrupting our sleep for about an hour and a half. Although according to the Weather app the worst of it hit west of us, we still heard lots of thunder boomers and heavy rain on the roof. Only “damage” was that one stake pulled out leaving part of the awning flapping in the breeze. Steve went out into the storm to secure the line to a nearby tree then reset the stake this morning. All in all we weathered the storm quite well.
Very glad to know your preparations paid off. I hear stories of people not so fortunate. I will need to set-up my little tent in backyard for the next severe storm to see how it fares.
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!
