Wednesday night is movie night at Tearstock, weather permitting, utilizing the giant inflatable screen at Atwood Park. Tonight weather did not permit. We had actually opted to skip the movie in favor of visiting with Doug & Mia. We could hear the movie in the background and then the audio stopped and folks started streaming back to their campsites. We checked the radar then went back to secure our site while Doug & Mia secured theirs. Now we’re headed back to finish our visit with them around the table in their T@B and hope the storm skirts us as it looks it might.
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.
Stay safe and dry!
