For those of us that travel by the seats of our pants, weekends in high season present a challenge. We try to identify campgrounds that might be less popular and to arrive early in the afternoon. Today we headed west from Newhalem, stopped at the Cascadian Farm Produce Stand for Raspberry Chip Ice Cream, coffee, vine ripened cherry tomatoes, and fresh sweet corn out in the middle of some gorgeous farm fields. Took the opportunity to call Elsie to order a couple of things for the T@B and chatted pleasantly for a bit. She requested more scenery pictures! We made our way to Sedro-Woolley’s Riverfront RV Park and got Site #19 for one night. If the place had shade we’d consider staying longer. But it gave us the opportunity to retreat into the air conditioned T@B for a siesta before venturing into downtown for Cherry Pie ala Mode, admiring the street art, and grabbing a Geocache smiley.
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!
