Celebrate Democracy

Family

We were part of the team of election workers at Pinellas Precinct 147 for the Presidential Preference Primary. It was a nearly fifteen hour day. We were there for set up by 5:45AM. Polls opened at 7AM sharp. We stayed busy all day processing voters at for a nearly 40% turnout. Polls closed (Steve got to announce the opening and closing with a “Hear ye, hear ye” announcement!) at 7PM sharp then the after hours procedures began. We were finished about 8:30PM. The two of us came home and were ready to fall into bed when we heard the sound of fireworks. We watched from our balcony before falling into a very sound sleep.

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

Cozumel & Grand Cayman

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.

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!
