Tuesday - September 15

Perfect day for traveling with lots of sunshine and pleasant temps - would love to get out and walk, soak up all this beauty and breathe the fresh, crisp mountain air.    West Virginia and western Maryland - sooooo beautiful and just seeing the slightest change in fall color here and there.
 
We took a short break in Claysville, PA and lo and behold saw a bunch of dandelions in a grassy area?    Dandelions in September???    Stopped in Morgantown, WV for lunch - always enjoy a
Tim Horton fix!!!
 
Lost a good 30 minutes due to a several vehicle accident, but turns out that it happened in the westbound lanes.   Fire trucks were on our side, so big time back-up and once we were cleared, the long line of 3-lanes of traffic heading west went on and on and on!
 
Arrived in Annapolis around 4....stopped at the boat yard..   Catrina looks good although her engines are still ailing.    Mark talked to one of the mechanics and we stopped at CVS and West Marine before checking in to the Maryland Inn (very old,, historic boutique hotel).   I've always admired this place during our many visits here and along the way today, Mark suggested we stay here.   
 It is lovely and my man gets extra brownie points!
 
We walked to the Carrol Creek CafĂ©.  We've walked or driven by many times, but usually heading to the Chart House, so....decided to try it (highly recommended).   We got a table on the water and had wonderful salads with fresh crab and shrimp and the grand finale was a fresh pear with lemon sorbet coated with a cabernet reduction in a small circular pastry shell....HEAVEN!!!
 
Sooo good to be back in one of our favorite cities - it is a beautiful evening and enjoyed our walk back to the Inn....
