It’s the annual Bella Vista craft fair extravaganza weekend and we have Sharon and Mike as our personal guides. First stop was the annual Methodist Men Pancake Day. What a fun community event. Excellent pancakes and accompaniments served with a sense of fun. We made a trip to the Mildred B. Cooper Memorial Chapel, a most inspirational spot and found a geocache too! Think Mike and Sharon might just have caught the geocaching bug! Then we headed to Spanker Creek Farm for their arts, crafts, and more festival. We’ve made a couple of purchases, snacked on loaded grilled potatoes and funnel cakes and are now pausing to catch our breath even as the shopping continues around us.
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!
