I think John has a free standing one, Blackstone is popular for those. To save space, I purchased this griddle top that sits on the grates of our gas grill, by Steelmade USA.

I’m curious as well, we are on Voyager repo from Boston to San Juan.

Hibachi and cheesesteak sandwiches are on our to do list.

Per the mfgr instructions, we cooked a pound of bacon on ours. Then made smashburgers a couple of times. It’s pretty well seasoned now.

We’ve visited Portland a few times by car. It’s a great little town for a walkabout, lots of cute shops, bars & seafood restaurants, I believe you can do whale watch trips from there. You can also do a tour of the Shipyard Brewery (or just visit). There’s the Maine College of Art & Design downtown too. I don’t know if they have anything open to the public.

Thoughts and prayers for a successful surgery and easy recovery for your Mom.

We love the series. Really good casting and acting.

@jagsfan Happy Belated Birthday Mimi! @BonTexasNY glad to hear you’re finally home Bonnie. One step (no pun intended) closer to back to normal.

The biggest lie I’ve ever told myself is “I don’t need to write it down, I’ll remember” !

It poured from the Delaware Memorial Bridge until just north of Baltimore, but it turned out to be a beautiful night at the ballpark. Sad how empty it was though. Certainly not the same atmosphere as a packed house at Fenway Park. We had Boog’s Barbecue for dinner there, smoked turkey sandwich & pit beef sandwich, we did “halfsie’s” and it was delicious. Next time we’ll plan to spend more time (and see the Red Sox play the O’s 😉).

That has to be so frustrating and it’s very inconsiderate. I’m very grateful to also be married to my handyman, even if he’s currently out of commission. I don’t think I’ve mentioned it here, but over the years Andy has shared his handyman/construction skills with a few select people we know by helping them with projects like tiling bathrooms, painting, replacing doors & trim, installing custom molding, etc. He’s so diligent about doing things right (including always showing up when he says he will) and leaving the place spotless that he could certainly make a very nice living if he wanted to just based on word of mouth. But he didn’t retire to work full time so it’s really just to keep him occupied. As one if our friends put it “everyone should have an Andy”, lol.

Thank you again!

So close! I’ll be having a Cosmo in the lobby bar tomorrow afternoon at check-in!

@Sunshine3601Thank you for all the great info Debbie! I’ve taken a screenshot to save for the next time we visit. We’re staying at the Royal Sonesta Harbor Court. Unfortunately we’ve hit a fair amount of traffic and it looks like we’ll just have time to check-in and head to the game, so it’s ballpark food tonight. I know we ate at a great bar/cafe in Fells Point our last time here, don’t remember the name. If you’ve been there, any suggestions for Cape May?

We’re off on a little road trip. First stop, Baltimore. Several years ago in our way home from FL we stopped and saw a Red Sox vs Orioles game at Camden Yards. On our last trip home from FL in March, as we drove thru B’more, I mentioned I’d like to go there again. So for Mother’s Day Andy bought us tickets for tonight’s game. Now I meant I’d like to go to a Red Sox game again, but we’re seeing the Orioles vs some team that’s not the Sox LOL, but it’s the thought that counts! We’re staying overnight within walking distance of the ballpark. Tomorrow we’re heading to Cape May NJ for the day, then checking into Harrah’s in Atlantic City tomorrow night. Thursday we’ll go to our oldest daughters in PA for the weekend, celebrating two grandsons July birthdays.

I hope everyone had a happy & safe 4th of July. It was a gorgeous weather day here, sunny and hot but no humidity. Perfect pool day. The umbrellas we ordered finally came in. Thankfully Andy had set the ground mount for the cantilever before his injury. Our SIL bolted to the mount today and it works great. It tilts and swivels so we can keep the dining set shady not matter the angle of the sun. A few pictures of it and our low key celebration today.

@dani negreanu I’m so sorry your long awaited cruise was such a disappointment. Then to end up testing positive for Covid after all that! How are you feeling?
