Ah, nothing like a week in the hometown of one's alma matter. I got to visit and spend
time with most of the people who make Maryland a special place for me.
Thanks go out to (in no particular order): Barney, Christine, Damian,
Gail and Michael, Hymie and Michelle, Janine, Koset, Maria, Mark, and
Mark and Carolyn.
While I was down in MD, I finally went to Fort McHenry - it is amazing
how onw can live in a town for 10 years and never visit the local
historic sites. I also went to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum.
Pictures
are available.
Just one more week in NY and then it is back to CA. The excitement is building!

Well, here I am, safe and sound in NY. I'm staying in my sister's
apartment in Queens. Everyone say: "Hi Andie!". She loves
dragonflies
-
if you send me an image of a dragonfly, I'll pass it on to her.

Well, the adventure begins. I've sold a lot of furniture, put the rest
of my belongings in storage, and now I'm sitting in an almost empty house.
All I've got left here is a blue folding card table, a sleeping bag and a
vaccuum cleaner. I'll make one last trip to the storage unit first thing
in the morning, then a last trip to the Berkeley Dump with a few bags
of trash. Finally, I'll park the car near Sandy and Robin's house, drop
off the key and call a taxi. Which reminds me, I need to call JetBlue and
ask them about the best way to prepare my backpack for baggage check-in.
I was supposed to board a plane for NY earlier today, but I had seriously
underestimated the amount of packing remaining. I tried to pull an
all-nighter, but when I saw I wasn't going to make it I decided to catch
some Z's and rebook the flight for tomorrow.
