• St. Augustine (sort of, still)

    March 2 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 12 °C

    Yesterday, we decided to spend one more day in the area since I wasn't feeling all that well. I slept much better, but like normal, I woke too early.

    We relaxed most of the morning then headed out to Pour Mike's Coffee House. We met my nephew, Jeff, there for a several-hour catch-up. As of today, he just might be my favorite nephew, although I am open for new applications. He is in the area for the Bike Week, which is for the southeast what the Sturgis Bike Rally is to the midwest. At least that is how I understand it. It was great catching up.

    After we left the coffee house, we headed to the Historic Center of St. Augustine, walked around for a while, and finally sat down for a burger and a beer.

    We returned to Cracker Barrel for another night before we head west in the morning. The temps today were in the mid-60s, with a brisk wind. So it seemed a bit chilly, but this man is not complaining.

    Wisdom for the day: St. Augustine is the nation's first city. We walked the old historical streets. I was reminded that "history never goes away; be careful of the history we make."
