1/21/2024 0 Comments 195) Walk With Me - To the TECO Line Streetcar in Ybor City Historic District of downtown Tampa, Florida!Hey Dreamers!! Well, this is another ‘first’ for me… I have NEVER been to Ybor City before, so thanks for joining me on this brand new Floridian Adventure! Today, we are checking out the Ybor City Historic District in downtown Tampa, Florida. Specifically, what caught my eye is the trolley line in town here! This mode of transportation that I am filming today is actually called the TECO Line Streetcar System. I keep saying the word ‘trolley’ though. We’re going to start by trying to catch some streetcars going by, as they intersect with an Amtrak train track, which I found to be quite intriguing. And then we’re walking up and down the historic Broadway Street for just a bit. We are on the road today, and I don’t have an awful lot of time or ability to show you everything, but I at least want to take a peak. I’ve never been, and if you’ve never been, you’ll be seeing my reaction in real time. I LOVE New Orleans, so, by the looks of this, I’m going to love it here. We’ll end the walk by checking out the famous Ybor City Historic District sign, welcoming us in and out of the area. Feel free to screenshot any of the historical markers that I’m trying to capture along the way. I did not have time to read everything on site, but I at least wanted to hold it on camera a bit… just in case you are curious. So definitely screenshot, or pause, and read any and all of the historical markers I try to capture for you. By the way, I love historical markers, and I love trying to share them with you. So, I hope you enjoy my very first visit to Ybor City in Tampa, Florida! And - please - let me know in the comments down below, what must I do next time I’m here? Because, guess what? I’m coming back. I love you!

It’s the coldest day of the year in Jacksonville, Florida, folks. It’s roughly 32 degrees, and I’m frozen. But, we’re still walking, so let’s get started. Today, we’re walking around the exterior of Everbank Stadium. It ends up being a 1.09 mile walk - a very large property, indeed. I’ve never been to this stadium before, or at least this close up. So I’m really excited to tour the grounds and check the Home of the Jaguars out! First, we’re going to check out the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Wall, which is housed literally in the parking lot of EverBank Stadium. I’ve heard of this memorial many times, but never saw it. So I’m curious to take a quick look today, but I’m so cold, so it’ll be a quick walk through. Then we’re taking what measures out to be a one mile loop around the exterior property of the Jacksonville Jaguars EverBank Stadium. I didn’t even realize that Daily’s Place is pretty much connected to EverBank Field! So, my non-football understanding brain did learn a lot today. Lastly, I’ve got some exciting personal news to share with y’all involving my YouTube Channel and my next adventure. So, stay tuned, and keep your notifications on. But most importantly, thanks for joining me, and thanks for walking with me. I do love you so much, Christine The Jacksonville Jaguars Everbank Stadium is located at: 1 TIAA Bank Field Drive Jacksonville, Florida 32202 For more information on the Jacksonville Jaguars, visit: https://www.jaguars.com/stadium/ The Jacksonville Veterans Memorial wall is located in the parking lot of Everbank Stadium, at: 1145 East Adams Street Jacksonville, Florida 32202 For more information on the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Wall, visit: https://www.jacksonville.gov/departments/military-and-veterans-affairs/jacksonville-veterans-memorial-wall This was filmed LIVE on Wednesday, January 17, 2024 in downtown Jacksonville, Florida.

Downtown Palatka Riverfront Park along the beautiful St. Johns River in FloridaHey Dreamers!! Today we are walking roughly one mile along the beautifully scenic Palatka Riverwalk in Downtown Palatka, Florida! This lovely route, located in Riverfront Park, will grant you some amazing views of the St. Johns River, as well as many birds and a variety of boating activities. It’s a wintery day once again in Florida, but we’re here for it. I’ve got my hoodie, and I’m ready to get some steps in. And, as an added bonus, we’ll check out all the world war history located along the walkway, including a variety of memorials, fountains, torpedos, statues, and other signage educating us along the way. I do hope you enjoy seeing Palatka as much as I enjoyed showing it to you. See you in the next one!

Let’s set my Apple Watch and go for a walk together along the beautiful St. Johns River. I’ve been captivated by this large body of moving water ever since we moved from Illinois to Jacksonville, Florida back in 2017. I love that I can find dolphins in this water, it always surprises me, to this day. I guess it’s because I certainly never saw a dolphin floating along in the DuPage River in Naperville, Illinois, or the Fox River in St. Charles, Illinois. So, basically, I’m always looking for a way to be able to look at this body of water. And, I’m always searching for dolphins, as well. And with that, today I am taking you on a leisurely stroll from the Lions Club Boat Ramp to the Blue Cypress Fishing Pier. We’ll be walking along a lovely boardwalk, literally right on the shores of the St. Johns Riverbank. The City of Jacksonville skyline is hidden, but peaking out in the distance. There are ships, and tugboats, birds, and sailboats. The air is cold, the wind is brisk, and it’s just about 50 degrees. I’m freezing. But that’s not going to stop me from walking with y’all today. So thanks for joining me. But mostly, I’m concerned about all the crazy weather that spanned nearly the entire country yesterday in some way, shape, or form. We had tornado warnings, and that was pretty scary for me. All ended up fine on our end, thank goodness - but I need to know from you! Is everything ok in your neck of the woods? Or riverbanks? How did you fare through the storm yesterday? Please drop me a comment down below. I do read every comment. And I want to know how you are doing since the multitude of storms passed through yesterday. I love you, Christine The Arlington Lions Club Boat Ramp is located at: Arlington Lions Club Park 4322 Richard Denby Gatlin Road Jacksonville, FL 32277 For more information on the Arlington Lions Club Boat Ramp, check out the website below: https://www.jacksonville.gov/departments/parks-and-recreation/recreation-and-community-programming/parks/arlington-lions-club-park The Blue Cypress Fishing Pier is located at: 5200 Golf Course Drive Jacksonville, Florida 32277 Please note - as of this recording, the Fishing Pier itself is closed due to what appears to be storm damage. You can still walk the entire length of the lovely boardwalk though. But access onto the actual pier is closed at this time. The entire park though is definitely still worth a visit to see this fabulous view and soak in some winter sun! This was filmed LIVE on Wednesday, January 10, 2024 in Jacksonville, Florida.

We’ll set my Apple Watch and see how far we get… However, this isn’t any ordinary stroll on the beach today, my friends. As we finish our exercise, we’re going to see if we can watch the Jacksonville Beach Polar Plunge! This will be my very first time trying to watch this crazy spectacle, so I’m pretty excited folks. I’ve been aware of the Polar Plunge since I moved down to Florida years ago, but never made it to the event before! So join me as I spectate, but I’m not crazy enough to jump in, lol. Plus, I will be sharing my New Year’s Wish for You, my dear friends, as we ring in this brand new year together. Thanks for dreaming alongside me. Happy New Year y’all!

It’s been a joy of my life to spend time with you on YouTube this December! And I really want to thank you for dreaming alongside me this holiday season 2023! We explored numerous places together, experienced many new special moments together, cooked, baked, unboxed, drank festive non-alcoholic beverages together, traveled, rode an auto ferry, took the car on the beach, had a hotel room tour, I boarded a river cruise for a tour and dinner, St. Nicholas came to visit us, we opened Advent calendars, lit candles, sat by some lovely fireplace yule logs, and much more. And with YouTube Shorts, videos, and 26 live streams during the course of 25 days! I’d say it’s near impossible for me to pick a favorite day of Vlogmas 2023, because I really just love the entire 25 days, of course. But, if I ‘must’ pick something that really stood out to me, I’d say it was the Parade of Trees in Green Cove Springs, Florida! A shocking 225 Christmas Trees decorated in their town square! It was a completely new experience to me, and I was truly shocked with how elaborate the display was. I definitely want to go back next year - on a warmer day - lol. And, not a surprise to me, I especially enjoyed all the food and drink and baking and cooking we did together. I truly believe there’s really something special about good food, shared with great friends... And that’s exactly how I felt with every single cup we shared together, as well as all the special appetizers and cookies. And, it is my hope - that you felt the same way. So, I just wanted to say THANK YOU. Thank you for being a fellow dreamer in this crazy world, and thank you for seeing the goodness in this special time of year, and thank you especially, for being a friend, and spending precious time with me. Thank you for helping me spread a smile and cup of good cheer and great tidings throughout the world, as the world surely does need more Cheer in it. All of this and then some - it means the world. And, last but certainly not least - I love you. Merry Christmas and Happiest of Holidays. Christine P.S. - Definitely drop me a comment and let me know what was your favorite day of this Vlogmas 2023 series of videos?? I’m so curious, and I’d love to know your thoughts! Plus - if you have any ideas or suggestions for next year - Vlogmas 2024 - most definitely let me know!

Merry Vlogmas 2023 Day 21 baby! Tonight we are going for a short walk down Ponte Vedra Boulevard in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. We’re here to check out all the decorated palm trees lining the way through the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club. Now, keep in mind, we are not club members, although I can dream, and anyone can walk down the public street lining the private club and hotel. It is a dream of mine to at least stay at the hotel one day. And even if one is not a club member, anyone can stay the night in the hotel. So, maybe I will have to do that at some point. But, for tonight, we’re just taking a leisurely December evening stroll to gaze at all the palm trees, decked out in their holiday finest. There’s also a grand water fountain, surrounded by gators and pelicans, as the centerpiece of the club entryway, so we’re going to take a look at that as well. I do hope you enjoy coming along with me this evening! Get your walking shoes on my friends. Merry Vlogmas!

Parade of Trees is a must-do if you are in the greater Jacksonville area or St. Augustine area of Florida during the holiday season. I am so glad we happened to come here this year. And I do hope you enjoy the trees as much as I do. So, we decided to go to the Parade of Trees in downtown Green Cove Springs, Florida on a chilly and brisk December evening. This event is free, walk through at your own pace, and open from sunset until 10pm - nightly, from December 2, 2023 through December 31, 2023. Upon stepping out of the car, I felt truly immersed in the holiday spirit. That feeling stayed with me as I walked briskly through the display - it was cold, my friends. And my goal of doing Vlogmas, is hopefully to pass along some of that spirit to you and yours. So, please share in a cup of Good Cheer and Great Tidings this December.

Today is the big day! I truly wait all year for this annual tradition and I’m so glad you are here to join me. Today we are baking the Christmas Sugar Cookie Dough that we prepared together yesterday during Vlogmas Day 16! So, if you haven’t watched us make the dough, definitely go ahead and check that out as well. But today is the day I get really excited for. Because I can actually eat the cookies, lol… And let me tell you, my hubby makes some really good cookies. So, we are planning to make roughly 74 Christmas Sugar Cookies together with y’all, and frost and decorate them as well. If you’re interested in the recipe, and want to follow along, I do have the recipe posted over in the Community Tab of my YouTube Channel. I also read the ingredients list back on Vlogmas Day 14 so you could purchase any ingredients you need ahead of time. So, if you’ve never made Sugar Cookies, and you want to join in the fun, I’d love to know how your baking goes! If you’re watching LIVE, please send a chat in and let me know how it’s going for you, and if you’re enjoying this baking party? And if you’re watching the replay, and you end up making this recipe, PLEASE leave me a comment down below and let me know how your cookies turned out! Baking is really special to me, and I tend to think that’s because my Grandpa was a Baker for 44 years. And I watched him bake, and baked along with him, over the many years I had with him. I miss him dearly, and I do tend to think that he would be highly amused by the fact that we are live-streaming our Christmas baking, our flour explosion yesterday included, and sharing these special moments with the world. This is my way of helping pass along all the Good Tidings and Cheer I always had with him in my life. I do want to Thank You personally for being a part of our Community of Dreamers today. I could not share these moments if you were not watching and sharing them out. It means the world to me that you Subscribe, Like, and Share all the stories, dreams, and hopes for this world that we live in together. I’m doing Vlogmas each day December 1st-25th to hopefully bring a smile to someone’s face, a Cup of Good Cheer, and mostly to make you laugh, at my expense of course, lol.

Let’s prepare some Christmas sugar cookie dough together this evening! We’re splitting our sugar cookie baking into two days and two separate livestreams. Today we are preparing the dough itself, which then needs to sit and chill in the refrigerator for a few hours. So we’re gonna let it chill overnight and come back LIVE on Sunday, December 17th to bake the cookies, frost, and decorate them together with you LIVE tomorrow! So I hope you enjoy preparing the dough with us tonight! Making sugar cookies is very labor intensive for me, so I’m also happy for self-care purposes to split this project into two separate days. I’ve shared the recipe and ingredients over in the Community tab and in video format during Vlogmas Day 14, so definitely go check it out either way. It’s my hope that if you desire to do any Holiday baking, that this can help in some way, and maybe you even join in and bake alongside us at home! We can do our Holiday baking together.

Vlogmas Day 13Hey Holiday Dreamers!! Merry Vlogmas 2023 Day 13 baby! Tonight, I’m taking you on quite a chilly and windy evening stroll around the grounds of the Beaches History Museum in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. This little gem of a stop, located along Beach Boulevard, is all decorated for the holidays. And, to me, the entire place looks like a beautiful Christmas Village IRL. So, join me on a mini walking tour… They were about to close for the night so I had to be fast. However, it was cold just the same, so I enjoyed it the best I could for a quick little visit. I hope you enjoy coming along with me as I take in the sights, and the lights, of the Beaches History Museum during the holiday season. I love it so much - I come here every Christmas to see the decorations. Love you, Christine The Beaches History Museum is located at: 381 Beach Boulevard Jacksonville Beach, Florida 32250 For further information on the Beaches History Museum, visit: https://www.beachesmuseum.org/ This was filmed LIVE on Wednesday, December 13, 2023 in Jacksonville Beach, Florida.
