Hi Bill. I'm not in the least bit worried about hurricanes.
I can hardly wait to "escape" Maryland. 
The older I get, the more the cold bothers me. I'm looking forward to the heat. In a few years, maybe I'll consider 70 degrees a "cold spell". Chuck

 to my buddy Chuck. We have a very nice group of people here on this site. Pretty laid back compared to some other boards, but very informative of what is happening in the area. I think you will like it.
BTW, Rich Z is the founder of this site and is originally from Parkville. Nice guy, but has a little unusual business. If you talk nicely to him, he might send you a sample of one of his products. Just pay careful attention when you open the sample package!

That is the truth! I know alot of people that made fun of Floridians dislike of the cold, then they moved down and became the same Floridians!  Now they put a jacket on in 70 degree weather!

Well you do know the difference between a "yankee" and a "damn yankee" don't you?
A "yankee" is a northerner who comes down to Florida to visit, gets in everyone's way and just makes a pain of themselves while they are here. A "damn yankee" comes down to Florida, and STAYS!
Hi you damn yankee, from another damn yankee.......

Thanks for the welcome, Rich, and thanks for telling me about this site.
Heading off to Dover this AM for the NASCAR races with Mrs. Chuck. Are you and Joyce going?
Rich Z: I'm a Pittsburgh, PA native. Moved to Baltimore in 1972. Our apartment was at Glenmont Apartments near Loch Raven and Taylor Avenues, not far from Parkville.
Lived there till 74 when we bought our first house in Fallston.
Gotta ask about your "unusual business".
Up here in Maryland, a "Yankee" is a New Englander.
We Marylanders are "Southerners", below the Mason Dixon Line. Chuck

Chuck,
Enjoy the race today! Unfortunately, Joyce and I are not going. We have given up our tickets at Dover. A great track, but as you know, with the speed on that track, plus 43 cars, if they do not get a lot of cautions, by mid race you may only have a dozen or so cars on the lead lap. When that happens the race can get a little boring. So, we now just watch it on TV. Besides the air conditioning is a lot better this way. I guess I am getting old. 
When you get a few minutes, give me a call and let me know how your trip to Pine Ridge went.
