Really for the challenge only?
Or just some nice drinks with the challenge as an excuse
Supermarket run here, too.
Yesterday I came across a guy selling fresh strawberries, so I bought 3 packets, and now I'm going to make strawberry jam.

We went to the winter fair here. I have gone every single year since the early 1990s (except 2020 and 2021 when it was cancelled due to the pandemic).
Lots of fun as always, walked around, did some shopping, saw the giant vegetables and the butter sculptures. We got tickets to the horse show in the afternoon so we saw a few carriage driving classes, grand prix jumping, and the canine/equine class which is always lots of fun. First the horse jumps a course, and then the dog does an agility course, and fastest combined time wins. I love going to the fair.

Daiquiri but no big deal, we know what you meant. And yum!
Not a cocktail person to be honest. I prefer my booze straight.
However, a strawberry pavlova might go down well...
Oops! Too late! 10 jars of jam.

Not an alcohol person here either. My strawberries and raspberries are usually lucky to leave the veg plot before being consumed!
Plans today are to drop MrsT at the airport for a quick trip back down to Florida. She’ll be returning Wednesday. It’s a cheap flight and gets her enough miles to preserve her “Commodore of the Skies” status for another year (ok…I made that term up, I don’t know what it’s called or what it’s good for, but that’s what’s going on).
On the way home, I need to drop off a knife for sharpening, and I may duck into Macy’s to see their Christmas displays. Everywhere here is pretty much decked out for Christmas now, including piped-in Christmas music and all that.

We're in Louisville, Kentucky this morning. Just ate the free hotel breakfast which was pretty good. Relaxing a little before we get on the road at noonish. Should be home around 5:30 p.m.
How is it you’re always traveling through the area the same day I’m at the airport? I don’t know the timing exactly, but I swear, I think you’ll be passing the airport right about the time I’m down there…again.

I wish I had the time to stop to meet and say hi but we need to try to get home by dark. My old eyes don't work as well at night. Another trip. We might go back to Florida in April.How is it you’re always traveling through the area the same day I’m at the airport?

I get that entirely. I’m the same way.
Schmidt’s meetup in Columbus, TBD!

Maybe a meet in the middle sometime in Amish country (not while we are traveling)?
