It’s our third trip through this part of New York. On both previous trips we traveled US-20 and loved it. The countryside is beautiful and we enjoy traveling through the small towns. Today we needed to make time because we have reservations at Geneva State Park in Ohio. So we are taking the NY Thruway and it is b-o-r-i-n-g. We’re both asking, “When will we get there? When will we get there?” It’s a beautiful day and we’re trapped inside this truck on this boring highway!
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!
The warmth we anticipated when we headed to the Caribbean in mid-January didn’t really materialize but the fun we had with our dancing friends and the great crew of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander more than made up for the not so favorable weather.
