I Spent The Day By Myself Working On My Boat. There Is Something Truly Relaxing About Time Spent On The

I spent the day by myself working on my boat. There is something truly relaxing about time spent on the water doing things that I love. It’s been a really stressful 2021, is been emotionally exhausting, taxing, frustrating, and has delivered a lot of hardships.

I’m hopeful that there will be a path that is illuminated for me, a path of meaningful employment that can sustain myself and my family. I have to believe that everything is planned and that this too was a necessary growth stage to help me understand my new path when it presents itself.

I have the most incredible man by my side, showering me with encouragement, love, support, and a powerful winning mindset. Together nothing will stand in our way, I’m going to marry this man.

I’ve spent a lot, and I do mean A LOT of time inside during 2020. It was nice to get out today and go for a bike ride. 22.5 mile ride through the nature preserve was just what I needed. Together we have accomplished so much, together we have supported each other so much, quarantine has made us stronger, moving into an open country has made us dependent on each other, and together we are stronger.

I am proud and gratefully to be unanimously voted in by the board to be an officer of the board (Treasurer) of the Rotary Club Of Tarpon Springs.

Rotary was started with the vision of one man — Paul Harris. This Chicago attorney formed the Rotary Club of Chicago on 23 February 1905, so professionals with diverse backgrounds could come together to give back to their community. Over time, Rotary’s reach and vision gradually extended to humanitarian service. Members have a long track record of addressing challenges in their communities and around the world.

“Whatever Rotary may mean to us, to the world it will be known by the results it achieves.” - Paul Harris

I ask you honestly, who doesn’t like trains? I remember being fascinated by them when I was a child, I grew up in a small coastal town called Crystal Beach on the west coast of Florida. We had a train that came through twice a day until I was 9, I would always run liaise to see it. I also would leave Penney’s on the tail for it to flatten.

Oh the good ole days!

Eastern European Escapade Part 3

Back in the car, and on our way to another country, as we get ready for an unforgettable adventure we are back on the road for our continuation of our trip. We are saying goodbye to Hungary and preparing to make our way to Slovakia! Our journey will hopefully take us through picturesque landscapes, and charming towns. We leave now from the bustling streets of Budapest to the historic sites of Bratislava, each mile promises new discoveries and unforgettable experiences. Buckle up and let’s explore the beauty and history of Central Europe together!

As we wondered the streets on this very wet, cold, and windy day in Bratislava, we strolled past St. Michaels Gate and decided that we needed to have a bite to eat. We came across Kola Kamzik, and holy cow it did not disappoint!

As we walked, we got closer and closer to the smells of the restaurants, and when we saw Kola Kamzik we knew this was the place.

When the food arrived at the table I knew I was about to have an incredible dining experience at Kola Kamzik in Bratislava! The food was absolutely fantastic, with each dish beautifully crafted and bursting with flavor. The blend of traditional and modern elements in their menu was impressive, and the presentation was top-notch. If you’re ever in Bratislava, don’t miss out on this restaurant – it's a culinary fusion that you won't forget! I certainly won't anytime soon!

Wondering around in Bratislava, taking it all in, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! Nestled along the banks of the Danube River, this charming city has rich history with vibrant modern culture. From the stunning Bratislava Castle overlooking the city to the delightful streets of the Old Town filled with cozy cafés and colorful buildings, there's so much to explore. The local cuisine (can't say enough about Kola Kamzik), the warm and welcoming people, and the city's relaxed vibe made it an unforgettable experience. If you ever get the chance to visit, don’t miss out on Bratislava and see for yourself what it has to offer—it's truly a pleasant surprise!

Bratislava Castle has a history that stretches back over a millennium. Originally built in the 9th century, it was strategically positioned on a hill overlooking the Danube River. The castle served as a key fortification and royal residence throughout various periods.

During the Middle Ages, it was an important center of trade and politics. In the 16th century, when the Hungarian kingdom’s capital moved from Buda to Vienna, Bratislava became the new capital, and the castle was renovated to reflect its prominent status.

In the 18th century, the castle fell into disrepair, but in the 20th century, it underwent significant restoration. Today, it stands as a symbol of Bratislava's rich heritage, offering visitors a glimpse into its storied past through its preserved architecture and museum exhibits.

10 days in France 🇫🇷

After three days in Paris it was time to get back into the rental and head west to the English Channel coast at Étretat where Monet painted some of his famous works. We stayed in a 400 year old Inn and made our way into the Pyrenees Mountains for a hike. We stayed the night in Lordes and visited the site where Mary appeared to Saint Bernadette. We then traveled over the mountains into Andorra 🇦🇩, a beautiful little country. We spent the day exploring and packed up to head out to the French Rivera
