It was going to be one of the coldest weekends of the year but that didn’t stop my friends Susan and Flip Gallion from putting their boat on the water for a sunset cruise.
It was the shortest day of the year, the Winter Solstice, and I had been cooped up for two weeks writing a report with a deadline that day.
Anyone who has been to Main Beach lately has no doubt seen our popular winter residents, the black skimmers.
I am always amazed how easy it is to get from my home on Amelia Island to the rest of the world. The Jacksonville International Airport is maybe 45 minutes away from my house.
This Thanksgiving, Bucko and I went our separate ways, happily for both of us. I like gatherings and company and he doesn’t. I like festive turkey dinners with friends.
