Blues, Wine, and Art...oh and the Jolly Trolley

Friday evening early, we caught the Jolly Trolley down on the Sponge Docks and rode in comfort to the Preview night for Dunedin's Blues, Wine and Art. Things were just getting started when we arrived so we roamed down the Trail and into Jolli Mon Grill. We got chatting with another couple on the trolley and they had recommended it. The food was very good...I had the seafood salad on a bun with black beans and rice and E had catfish fingers which he love
Jolli Mon's is a funky old Florida kind of place with most of the seating in the spacious courtyard. We will definitely be going back. The prices were very reasonable and, always a must with us, the beer was cold.

Dunedin was all aglow with decorated trees and lights and each store decorates the light pole in front of their store. Some are very amusing.

This is for Clare. He is a little young but he might be your way to a green card...lol. And I know how you love a man in a skirt...er, ah kilt.
We will be going back to Dunedin again for a stroll through the shops early next month. When we lived in St. Louis we would take one weekend afternoon and roam around Old Towne St Charles. There were international Santas roaming the street, Victorian singers and even roasted chestnuts on the street corners. We would shop, visit and sip our way from shop to shop and pick out a new ornament or three for our tree and then eat dinner at our favorite restaurant, Lewis and Clarks'. We have finally found a place here to recreate this tradition, Dunedin.

Kristen's b'day dinner is here today so look for baby, boys and family pics tomorrow. (this might be construed also as a warning to those who have O.D'd on my family...lol).

Hope your weekend had been fun!
