Not A Good Day To Visit Ocean City

If you're heading to OC today, you must have your head in a box. For one thing, weather wise, there's big storms a brewin'. We're expecting high winds and heavy downpours through tomorrow or even Monday.

On top of that, the RT 90 bridge will be closing at 10 this morning for repairs. It will remain closed, at least through December. So, even if you're not heading to OC today but maybe later on, keep the closed bridge in mind.. This means, to get to Ocean City, you'll either have to take RT 50 all the way in to the Inlet end of OC. You could also come in from the North and Delaware RT 1 through Rehoboth, or on Delaware RT 54, through Selbyville, DE and Fenwick Island. The only other options would be, by boat, or firing up your helicopter, or swimming up on the beach from up or down the coast.

Please don't blame me for the inconvenience. I'm just the messenger. Once the sun breaks through the clouds again next week, head to the Shore. We're still open for business.

I Need To Buy Some Pom Poms

Folks that know me, know that long before I moved to the Eastern Shore, I was a die hard fan of the Baltimore Colts. Memorial Stadium and names like Unitas, Amechie, Barry, Macke, Lipscomb, Donovan, Matte, and many more, were a big part of my daily discussions years ago.

When the Colts left Baltimore for Indianapolis in the early 80's they took a part of many fans hearts, including mine. One thing that stayed behind was an outstanding marching band. Tonight ESPN is featuring a documentary by Barry Levinson (famous for his Baltimore based movies; Hairspray, Diner, Avalon, and others like Rainman). Tonight's film hits the cable @ 8 PM on ESPN..

New Blog To Follow

Keeping up with all the events on the Eastern Shore is quite a task, especially in the Summer Vacation season. There's a new blogger that does a fairly good job, and throws in some interesting commentary along the way.. Don't miss out on Nicole's Writings.

"Oh Danny Boy....."

Here we are just a weekend away from Labor Day and the traditional closing of Summer. Here on the Eastern Shore, we'll be watching Danny. That's the Atlantic storm that may or may not evolve into a full Hurricane.

Current predictions show that Danny will hit around Cape Cod. As it skirts the Maryland and Delaware beaches, it may throw off some rain and heavy rockin', surf.

A Beautiful Weekend

This is a special weekend for my family. My son, his wife and their baby (my grand daughter) is coming to visit from Little Rock, Arkansas. This will be the first time seeing her, since she was born last September. Kelly and I are really looking forward to this week.

Now if you're headed to the Eastern Shore this weekend, here's an idea of something special and historical for you and your family. Fenwick Island will be turning back the clock, for an eight day celebration of the beach town's heritage. It's the first ever, "Old Fenwick Island Days"..
