Hi, Maryland!

You have a lot of rain!

Cats made it OK. They are all very dubious about the new place. We have blocked the hole that gave access to the space under the kitchen cabinets.

The travails of living sans furniture are pretty boring so I won't talk about em. Suffice it to say that our new mattress is the best thing ever. The movers arrive early next week. We get Internet on Saturday. Can't wait.

Thanks for all the offers of visits on the way down. We went via Scranton, which has less traffic and more pretty.

Alternate Worlds is in the Yorktown Plaza one block north of you, actually.

Parsa Kabob in that plaza is good eats (Iraqi, I think). Right next to the game store.

On Cranbrook Road, near the plaza, is a pretty good Indian restaurant.

At the intersection of Cranbrook and York, on the west side, there's The Corner Stable. Decent ribs there, but it's a bit of a dive, decor-wise.

Go north on York till you hit Shawan and turn left. You'll hit the Wegman's plaza. If you're not familiar with Wegman's, you should become so.

Also in that plaza are some clusters of "boulevard"-style shops and "chain" restaurants. I highly recommend California Pizza Kitchen, which is in the back of the plaza, up on the hill. Noodles & Co. is cheap and yummy. There's a bookstore there, too, and it has a coffee shop in it with comfy chairs. Movie theater behind the plaza.

We found the Indian place -- not bad at all. Good Iraqi is awesome, check. Wegman's, check -- we weren't sure which grocery store we wanted.

I'm working pretty much across the street from the plaza, in fact.
