JB,

I absolutely LOVE the Jersey shore. I'm going to retire there someday. The Pine Barrens are great too - brings back a lot of memories from growing up (party time down in Batsto!).

I kept the kids busy today. Took them to the Seaport Museum down at Penns Landing, New Hall Military Museum (very small and free of charge), and the National Liberty Museum ($5 for adults, kids are freebies!).

If you've never been to the National Liberty Museum, it's an eye opening experience. When we were going up to the second floor, they had pictures of every firefighther that died in the World Trade Center tragedy on one wall, and the famous pic of the firefighters hoisting the American Flag on another. Going up to the third floor was a wall with all the police officers that died that day. Very touching, but very sad.

JB, did I mention that you also get free JELLYBEANS at the National Liberty Museum. They give them out to remind us that we are all the same inside regardless of the color of our skin (Jelly Belly's too!).


Frank,

Thank you the link. I haven't read everything there yet, but what I have read is very disheartening.

Like Nite said, all of mcgdogm is a tourist attraction. You couldn't make me live in Orlando on a bet.

I've heard a lot about Fell's Point and I really want to see the sites.

Hee-hee. You mean the bars, right? When you come up, you send me a PM and we'll get together and get completely sloshed in all the bars in Fell's Point (maybe we can even find The Bar).

A lot of Baltimore is slummy. A lot of Baltimore is nice. It's really funky to go one block through boarded up rowhouses, and then suddenly be driving past mansion after mansion ...

ohhh, is that where all the *clubs* are?

i know years ago alot of guys from this area used to go to B*Mo for their batchelor parties

[CinaC]

Clubs are all over the place. There are a lot in northern Baltimore to take advantage of Loyola U., Towson U., Goucher College, Notre Dame (for women!), Johns Hopkins U., Morgan State ... aaaaieeeeee.

Screw clubs. I like bars. With beer. Lots of beer. I just wish the DC Metro would extend up to the Baltimore area ... I want for a decent subway!!!

The Boardwalk, the beach, the redwoods, Monterey, Carmel, Big Sur, the Coast Road up to Half Moon Bay, on and on...

GEeesh all we got out here is the corn cam, soybean cam, and dairy cam. LOL I can take you out to see some real fields and tip some real cows but tourists in Iowa common give me a break we all are too laid back to go fetch something for some tourist LOL

How does one tip a cow? I hear that all the time, never known what was meant.

Serious.

They sleep standing up. I think the legs kinda lock in place when they're sleeping. Slowly sneak up on one and push 'em over!
