Kimbo, Annie and Joyce visit Crossroads


Our friends Kimbo, Annie and Joyce came to visit Crossroads. We had a wonderful visit.

Saturday morning we watched the St. Pete’s Christmas parade, it was a hoot. I felt like I was watching the Chester Co. Christmas parade. I think if you had a car you could be in this parade. The highlight was the poodle rescue group. Fifty poodles with Santa hats on, very cute. We spent the rest of the morning at the wonderful street market and ate our way through the streets. The highlight of the day was hanging out on the sailboat. There was very little wind so we just chilled out for several hours. The weather was perfect, sunny and high 70’s. We had a feast of homemade breads made with olives, and sun dried tomato and rosemary. Spread out on a colorful beach towel on the deck were delicious grapes, honey roasted pecans, dolmas, garlic chickpeas, aged extra sharp cheddar cheese and yummy olive oil for the breads. We topped it off with a lemon tart.
