From frontier community to logging town to artists colony to tourist destination, Nashville in Brown County Indiana seemed a good place to just hang out for a day with CJ. She was interested in checking out some of the shops that carry yarn since the two local yarn shops in Bloomington have folded. Together we poked around town. We started the experience with a sandwich and caffeine boost at The Daily Grind before poking around various gift shops. The Clay Purl had some lovely yarns and CJ left with a couple of skeins. Later in the afternoon Phil joined us as we poked around in the Moonshine Leather shop. After ice cream at The Chocolate Moose and some great pizza and beer at Big Woods Pizza we all declared it a successful day. We headed back to Brown County State Park and they made their way back to Bloomington with plans get together in the morning.
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!
