After breakfast today we were thwarted in our efforts to make a second cuppa. The stove wouldn’t light. Sure enough, we’re out of propane! A Google search and a phone call later and we added Lakes Gas Company in Hager City WI as an interim destination to our day’s plan. Our route took us through Red Wing MN, home of Red Wing Shoes, and across the Mississippi. Once at Lakes Gas we had our two propane tanks filled in a jiffy and were on our way south to Pepin.
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!
