Hope you have a fantastic time!
(I think, if I recall correctly, you are returning to a "neighborly get-together?" I am sorry you are in for that (testing). Not fun!) Thoroughly enjoy each moment! |

I'm Baackk !
8 days of a very uneventful, relaxing, out-of-touch (mainly)vacation. Not too hot (mid 80's) except for the 1st, 2 days. Spent time on the beach, ate at 3 very fine restaurants, had 'take-out' of steamed crabs one night (unless you're from around here, you don't know what a delicacy that is), but practically had to take out a loan, first . One place wanted $65 a dozen for mediums, & $80/dz for large ! - that's ridiculous! On a good nite, I can eat 10-12, by myself (But usually 6 or 7). At home, we usually order an xtra 1/2 doz small, and I make a darned good, restaurant quality (or better) crab soup. MD Crab Soup is served all over the country, but you ain't had real Eastern Shore, MD Crab Soup - til you've tasted mine! But I didn't make the soup, this time around. We took a chance on a new steamed crab carry-out only place (opened only 3 weeks earlier), and were very pleasantly surprised at the quality, taste & prices. Did some outlet mall shopping, gifts for the grandkids, etc. Had to buy new Adirondack deck chairs (the older wooden ones had rusted out fittings) for the deck/balcony (ocean front) - practically had to take out a much larger loan! But these new ones are really nice. 20 yr warranty. Heavy for the winter winds (they're out all year round, so we don't want them blowing around in a 'nor-easter') .... that took up 1/2 day of shopping and another 1/2 day waiting for the delivery. Our fix-it guy, came & replaced the ice-maker in the fridge (another a.m. waiting around), so I got in some banjo practice to use up the times. My PN feet only kept me 'down-time' for one day out of the 8 (good odds at 8 to 1, for me)- so again, I got in some snoozing & banjo practice. Our rescued-Beagle, came with us & had no problems, either. She was on 'good behavior', too. I was sorry to have to leave & come back home. Coulda/Shoulda/Woulda - stayed all summer But our condo was rented, & booked solid until Sept (so the mortgage is covered, .... at least). I'll go back for a coupla long weekends in the fall, and in Nov, before we close it up for the winter. So, it was a good vacation for me, this summer. No 'Chinese Fire-Drills" or accidents. No big problems. Just relaxed and enjoyed 8 days off work, and away from the city.
