This weekend we travelled to Baltimore, Maryland to see Infected Mushroom play at Palma Nightclub. Smitties bought the tickets and booked our room at the Hilton. He was supposed to come, but he had to work in Canada so he gave Toby the tickets and room as a birthday present. The show was great and the hotel room was fantastic!... read more

The subject to this entry has nothing to do with the entry itself, I just wanted something a little dramatic as an introduction: Currently listening: Hong Kong by The Gorillaz (for the incredible guzheng) Just listened: Leaves in the River by Sea Wolf Currently reading: Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk Just read: The Road by Cormac McCarthy I am in Columbia, Maryland, outside of Baltimore, lying prone in the front yard of Sam's uncle's house. The time is getting nearer where the trip takes some unique turns: Tim is going to Scotland for a week and a half and I am going to Oregon and Idaho for four weeks—flying out of New York and Boston, respectively. Driving from Indianapolis to Maryland, we stopped in Ohio to visit a friend at The Apostolate for Family Consecration Catholic Familyland. ... read more

Well we arrived in Baltimore yesterday evening after another "train day". Checked in2 our hostel, got some food and then got some shut eye. Got up nice and early this morning and have had a bit of walk round the harbour, went up Baltimores own World Trade Centre, walked up federation hill, climbed up the Washington monument, saw a street performer.

Nov 6. Chesapeake City, MD to Baltimore,MDNov 6. Chesapeake City, MD to Baltimore,MD 0633. Overcast this morning. Grey skies and light rain. At 0830 we hauled anchor and left Chesapeake City, MD. We continue on the last miles of the 23 nm long C&D canal. The generator was overheating so at 1030 we anchored on the side of the canal at 39 27.26N 75 58.51 to check it. Once anchored it ran with no problem. Vitto made his usual nice breakfast eggs, bacon, toasts with jelly and a hot cup of tea. It was great to have power again. This breakfast gave us the energy to get through the rest of the day that was about to come. At 1104 we were going around Turkey LT and at 1122 we were out of the C&D canal ... read more

Ann here -- Another one of those days that required two blog entries.... we left Anne's at 4:15pm headed for Baltimore... Phil put this wild thought into Rich and David's head the week before... the Orioles were playing at home on 7/13 at 7:05pm... Phil thought it would be cool for David and Rich to say they had been to Camden Yards.... plus, it really did make alot of sense... wait out the Friday night traffic while catching a game. True to all of the other tips Phil provided us, it was an AWESOME idea! It was a fast game against the White Sox. We had made the plan in the beginning to leave by 9pm... we left at the top of the 8th inning... Orioles leading 2-0 on two solo homers... remember our Yankees ... read more
