ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND: Friday night after work, I set out on the road for Annapolis. This part of the trip was familiar, since Julia lives there, so no new ground was covered. I drove down I-95 to
Delaware House, one of the world's great rest stops. Then I drove down US 301 through Middletown, Delaware and Maryland's Eastern Shore to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, where I crossed into Annapolis. This is a great route to take to Annapolis or Washington, because the tolls and traffic are so much lower than on 95. I just like screwing Delaware out of the ridiculous tolls they charge for my twenty minutes spent in the state.
On Saturday we drove into D.C. to see a
Washington Nationals game with some of my law school friends. The victors in that matchup were the Philadelphia Phillies, as expected, and all fans where honored with the presentation of a Chad Cordero bobblehead. We ate dinner in
Silver Spring, which was a great surprise. When I lived there, it was run down and boring. Now, fully gentrified, it offers a wide array of eating and shopping experiences for the young professional with too much money in his pocket. A good time was had by all.
So now, I leave for the West. Look for more postings from the road!

Here is some advice that my father gave to me as I was leaving for Mardi Gras in New Orleans, "Beware of swindlers and loose women." It is advice that has served me well in life.
Go Chad Cordero!! WHOOO...
And always go straight at the loose women, less chance of slipping out!
