This natural Lake Couer d’Alene in northern Idaho is absolutely gorgeous. We camped south of here last night and came into town this morning to explore and to run a few errands. Didn’t know we had picked one of the busiest weekends of the summer. Iron Man Coeur d’Alene is tomorrow and downtown is crazy busy and several streets are blocked off. We were still able to make our way to Spokane Power Tools to get routine service for our generator, get some delicious sandwiches and mountain berry tea at Bakery By The Lake at Parkside, explore the downtown lakefront park, find a geocache, and stop at the local IGA to snag some groceries. Time now to head back to the quiet of the forest!
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!
