Something for the Weekend: Jacksonville Edition
What’s happening this weekend(s): the Jacksonville Edition: Decca Live, Palaye Royale, Lullaby of the Rivers Festival
Jacksonville
Jacksonville is the most populous city proper in the U.S. state of Florida, located on the Atlantic coast of northeastern Florida. It is the county seat of Duval County, with which the city consolidated in 1968. It is the tenth-most populous U.S. city and the largest city in the Southeast, with a population of 949,611 at the official 2020 U.S. census
St. George Street
After a week of dreaded cold, and even some rare snowfall in Florida about two weeks ago (although I did not witness this in my area), the weather here has been in the high 70s to 80’s in the past week! It’s glorious. Since the temperature have gone way up, we decided to take a day trip to St Augustine, a nearby city.
Pho Ever Yours
So… here is my ranking of top Phở restaurants in Jacksonville.
New Year, New Jax City
Now that everything is settled down in Jacksonville, I will be looking to explore the city in 2025. I am only here until March, however, eventually, the plan is to make a final move to Jax sometime in late 2025, if we can sell the house in Minneapolis.
FIVE
The most exciting thing is that there is a new music venue in Jacksonville called FIVE, their website said they are open for business in January 2025… but looking at their calendar, it looks like the first show is on February 22. I will be back home in Minneapolis in March, so I’ll see if I can sneak in a show before returning home.
Weekend Gamer: Gaming Desk
Well, it’s Christmas Day already! As you know, I’m currently living in a house in Jacksonville, Florida, for a few months. This is the first time that I’m not experiencing snow or freezing temperature in over 20 years. It’s so very nice to walk outside and see the sun in December!

Florida Theatre
I’ll be honest, I don’t know much about the city. I did do a little research and shocked to discover the city has about 1 million people living there… that’s twice as large as Minneapolis! In fact, it’s the most populous city in Florida, and the largest in the South outside the state of Texas.
