 Other than the significant traffic noise from I-75 to our west and US-25 and a busy freight railroad line to our east, this is quite a pleasant campground. The landscaping is delightful. According to our host, it was designed, built, and planted with trees from a...

 What an adventure! We chose this morning to decamp and move on, thinking we could find a site at Winton Woods for twelve nights. It's October and it seems the camping season is winding down. Not! In what seems to be a growing trend, Winton is hosting Halloween Nights...

Winter Magic in Medina

Winter Magic in Medina

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!
