We punched our tickets to Frederick Maryland today. I’m trying to get us out of the house once a week at least to visit a Maryland town. Not that we don’t get out beyond that, but something special just for the two of us. Maybe a lunch or dinner at a nice spot and a long walk together.

It also gives me a few minutes to photograph, which I love. And sometimes my better half finds some stores to venture into, allowing me even more opportunities.

We had a great lunch at Brewers Alley with wonderful service and will add them to our list. We looked at the Tasting Room menu but we had eaten there before.

The walk is good except you have to watch your step in town. There are a great number of uneven spots so be careful old folk. That is not the case for the walkways along Carrol Creek. They are smooth, wide, and flat. A good place to run also.

We like walking in this town and will visit again this summer. It might be a good spot for some night shots also.

Random Thoughts of the Day

• Spring has sprung. So has the sale of Kleenex.
• Got a good bit of exercise in today. I’m going to set tomorrow on repeat.
• There seem to be more birds around my home this season. I love it till I go out to my car.
• Pain is not welcome, but apparently, the message has not been received.
