Actually, we've been in touch with Danny Stewart to put on a Bluegrass Cruise out of Baltimore up that way. Those are fun. The last one was on Royal Caribbean out of Tampa. Don't like flying to Tampa though. You can camp at Jetty Park and cruise on Disney's or Royal Caribbeans mega ships to that Bahamas or Caribbean. Summer's past in Canada"s maritime islands. No! The whole point is *not* having to fly or drive long distances. Heck, B-more is only an hour away. If you want to cruise to fun places you have to come to Florida. That's totally absurd. |

Don't like flying to Tampa though. What's wrong with flying to Tampa. That is usually a non-stop out of DCA and it is a short ride to the cruise dock. It is certainly better than Miami. Baltimore is about an hour away from where Herring lives. About the same for us. Easy drive, no muss, no fuss, no flying, no airport/airplane hassles. We drive up to Baltimore frequently for dinner at some terrific restaurants. This one is really nice...great food, service, atmosphere... https://is.gd/qoT4F6 If the weather is decent, we try to get seated in the courtyard behind the restaurant. There are a number of interesting restaurants in that neighborhood, so on-street parking can be a bitch. Heck, if I want nice restaurants, I drive 5 minutes to downtown Pleasanton. |

There are a number of interesting restaurants in that neighborhood, so on-street parking can be a bitch. I suppose. I never really liked Baltimore that much. Maybe traffic got better but it really used to suck trying to get around. Like you say, parking might be an issue too. Annapolis wasn't horrible and they had good restaurants there too. I still was not really that interested in eating out. After spending as much time on the road as I did, in places like New York and Chicago with great restaurants within a short walk, driving very far to eat just seemed silly. I got to the point that I would rather stay home and cook something I liked. When you are at the grocery store with the budget of even a cheap restaurant, you can buy some pretty nice food. |

Saturday we went to San Francisco for Fleet Week. Watched the Blue Angels spend tax dollars. Since you do not pay taxes, should not matter to you cost. But since there was a 2 hour wait for bar eating seating at one of our favorite places, House of Prime Ribs, we went to the Buena Vista, great Irish Coffee and wife and I split a crab melt and shrimp Louie salad, |
