Curt, Yvonne, Randi and I spent most of the day in St. Augustine, FL, an hour south of Jacksonville. It is the oldest city in the continental United States, founded in 1565. One could spend days seeking out its history. Randi spent a lot of her childhood visiting there, including every New Year’s Day, which was a tradition her father initiated. We had time only for a few highlights, one being the Castillo de San Marcos, a Spanish-built fort (1763).
