The Lake Huron shore here at P.H.Hoeft State Park looks remarkably like the Gulf shore in Pinellas did years ago. But when we engage other senses, there are significant differences. First is the absence of the saltwater smell, and then there’s the distinct temperature difference!  Unlike the Gulf which is often as warm as bath water, this is chilly as one of the mountain streams at Tween Creeks. We enjoyed wading but only up to our ankles. Perhaps at midday when it’s warm and sunny, a swim would be refreshing but right now it’d be a much too chilly prospect! Another stark difference is the pebbles along the shore instead of seashells! A most refreshing experience for these Gulfcoast Kids!

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!
