We spent some time today exploring the US-64 corridor here in the Piedmont between Asheboro and Chapel Hill. Did a little bit of shopping for things to enhance our rambling lifestyle including a little more camp furniture and extra lighting for the 10×10 canopy we’ve put up over the kitchen area. And we snagged just one geocache. Back in camp we enjoyed a repast of salad, brats, and mashed potatoes. Now we’re just sitting and reading and enjoying the moderate temperature on this September evening here in the North Carolina Piedmont.
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!
