Yesterday afternoon we pulled into the community of El Dorado at Santa Fe and parked our T@B in Bill’s driveway for a weekend visit. We enjoyed the patio and libations with Bill as daylight began to wane then were happy recipients of a delicious home cooked spaghetti dinner. Bill introduced us to a mystery series on Netflix and we watched the first episode of Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries. We made some plans for the weekend eschewing the balloon fiesta since we’d all had fabulous experiences in years past and may well do so again but desire calmer more relaxing activities this time. This morning we two have enjoyed an opportunity to get a few projects done while enjoying being outside under fabulous blue skies and just a hint of a breeze.
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.
Aboard Jewel of the Seas, a favorite ship of ours, we enjoyed a foray into the history and geology of Canada’s Atlantic coast while enjoying the joys of friendships, longtime and new. Now we’re looking forward to returning to the same ship for further adventures!
