We got some travel in but all within the islands.

Hope to get back to overseas this year!

I hope you enjoyed at least some of your Wilmington NC trip! (my hometown)

It was good but bittersweet. It should have been to dedicate a bench in the hospice's Veterans Memorial Garden for my uncle, and my cousin Nick should have been there; instead, we dedicated two benches - the second for Nick.

The weather was great, the event was very well done (and extremely emotional), and the lunch was a welcome opportunity to get some North Carolina barbecue; I'm glad I went.

I am sorry for your losses. If it had to be, I'm at least glad the weather, event, and lunch were good.

Jackson's Big Oak Barbecue was close to my growing-up church and we enjoyed going there. The other two BBQ places in Wilmington I remember were Flip's, and Casey's Buffet (which became my favorite, but it was a bit further out on Oleander).
