Back in 1949 Bud married Cathie, the girl next door. Last August they celebrated their 66th Wedding Anniversary! Tonight Bud, their children, their families and friends gathered at the home of their daughter Alice to celebrate Cathie’s life. Together we raised a toast to The Girl Next Door and to all the life lessons she imparted to us with style and grace! The celebration didn’t conclude until grandsons David and Greg arrived from Canton and Boston!
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!
