Packing Smart and Traveling Light By Rick Steves

Packing Smart and Traveling Light

By Rick Steves Retrieved Jan. 20, 2018


The importance of packing light cannot be overemphasized,
but, for your own good, I’ll try. You’ll never meet a traveler who, after five
trips, brags: “Every year I pack heavier.” The measure of a good traveler is
how light he or she travels. You can’t travel heavy, happy, and cheap. Pick
two.

One Bag, That’s It

My self-imposed limit is 20 pounds in a 9" × 21" ×
14" carry-on-size bag (it’ll fit in your airplane’s overhead bin, at least
on your transatlantic flight — though many European airlines restrict hand
luggage to even smaller weights and dimensions). At my company, we’ve taken
tens of thousands of people of all ages and styles on tours through Europe. We
allow only one carry-on bag. For many, this is a radical concept: 9" ×
21" × 14"? That’s my cosmetics kit! But they manage, and they’re glad
they did. After you enjoy that sweet mobility and freedom, you’ll never go any
other way.

Once again this year we followed a family tradition to get together for a musical, opera, or theater event at places like the Kennedy Center in Washington DC or the Hippodrome in Baltimore. In the past we have taken cruises together or traveled to New York as a family. This year we went to see Les Miserables, by Victor Hugo, at 'The National Theater,' 1321 Pennsylvania Ave. NW 27Dec2017. Before the play, we shared dinner at Occidental Grill and Seafood, 1475 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington DC 20004 www.occidentaldc.com 27Dec2017. We really enjoyed the excellent production of Les Miserables – and really enjoyed the family time together.

Gimme Danger (Iggy Pop Mix)


Gimme Danger (Iggy Pop Mix)

Released on: 1973-02-07

Gimme danger, little stranger
And I feel with you at ease
Gimme danger, little stranger
And I'll feel your disease

There's nothing in my dreams
Just some ugly memories
Kiss me like the ocean breeze

Now, if you will be my lover
I will shiver and sing
But if you can't be my master
I will do anything

There's nothing left alive
But a pair of glassy eyes
Raise my feelings one more time

Yeah!

Yeah, find a little stranger, find a little stranger
Yeah, they're gonna feel my hand
Said die a little later, why no, little stranger?
Hurry on and feel my hand
Swear you're gonna feel my hand
Swear you're gonna feel my hand

Danger
Little stranger

Danger
Little stranger

Danger
Little stranger

Danger
Little stranger

Danger

Danger

Gotta feel the pain
Gotta feel the pain
You gotta feel it

I Wanna Be Your Dog


I Wanna Be Your Dog

1969 Song by The Stooges

So messed up, I want you here
In my room, I want you here
Now we're gonna be face-to-face
And I'll lay right down in my favorite place

And now I wanna be your dog
And now I wanna be your dog
And now I wanna be your dog

Well, come on

And now I'm ready to close my eyes
And now I'm ready to close my mind
And now I'm ready to feel your hand

And lose my heart on the burning sands

And now I wanna be your dog
And now I wanna be your dog
And now I wanna be your dog

Well, come on

Woo
Uh

‘The Rodney Kelley Experience’ Friday, September 29, 2017 at 7:30 pm


Carroll County Arts Council in Westminster: A Night of Jazz & Blues with ‘The Rodney Kelley Experience’ Friday, September 29, 2017 at 7:30 pm


Scheduled: Friday, September 29, 2017     7:30 pm

Cost:  $20 advance / $25 day of the show

Location: The Carroll Arts Center, 91 West Main Street, Westminster, MD, 21157

The excitement of hot jazz and blues comes to the Carroll Arts Center with The Rodney Kelley Experience. One of the hardest working bands in the Baltimore metro area, The Rodney Kelley Experience appears regularly with high energy performances at area nightclubs, festivals, and corporate events; this will be the first visit by the quintet to the Westminster area.

Playing and performing on the guitar for over 35 years, Rodney Kelley has been committed to straight ahead jazz, his mainstay, but he has been known to not only dabble in contemporary jazz, some blues but also a bit of rock (Jimi Hendrix style). Easily switching from electric to acoustic guitar, and adding vocals on occasion, multi-talented Kelley is a fan of legendary jazz artist Wes Montgomery and excitedly admits the influence of the late master guitarist on his own performances. A phenomenal performer, Kelley frequently discusses the benefits of great live performance to build and continuing to grow the audience for jazz.

In the Baltimore area, The Rodney Kelley Experience has appeared at Artscape, Gordon Center for the Performing Arts, The National Aquarium, The Heritage Art Festivals, Harborplace, The Tremont Plaza Hotel, Clyburn Arboretum, WBFF TV, The Walters Art Gallery, School 33, Club 347, and for a number of corporations such as Baltimore Gas & Electric, The FOXO Corporation, and many others.

A Night of Jazz & Blues is the third presentation by WEAA FM’s Your Girl Cheryl & YGC Productions this year at the Carroll Arts Center that also brought the annual MOTOWN & MORE: The Legacy Lives production in April and saxophonist Art Sherrod, Jr in August. The final presentation, MOTOWN & MORE: A Holiday Celebration is scheduled for early December at the Carroll Arts Center.

The nicely dressed tree may be found at the Winchester Exchange at 15 East Main St


The tree all dressed-up in the knitted attire does make me smile. The nicely dressed tree may be found at the Winchester Exchange at 15 East Main Street in historic downtown Westminster. I take my hat off for the folks who dressed the tree. Each of us needs to do whatever we can to promote the community we love. The best progress comes from a positive approach.

Pam and Charlie at Buttersburg Inn on Sat..Sept. 9, 2017

Pam and Charlie at Buttersburg Inn on Sat..Sept. 9, 2017. The past several weeks have way too busy and I cannot recall if I posted this picture of my sister Pam - and Charlie, over at the Buttersburg Inn, or not. I really like this picture...


Caroline, Grammy and I went to dinner at the Buttersburg Inn, in Union Bridge. It was really good to see Jim and Frank, Pam Zappardino and Charlie Collyer there. The place was full. Our dinner was great. Friday, Sept. 8, 2017

Coca Cola Syrup distributed by Rasinsky’s Pharmacy, 30 West Main Street, Westminster, Md

Coca Cola Syrup distributed by Rasinsky's Pharmacy, 30 West Main Street, Westminster, Md Tilden 8-7100.


I found this in an upper cupboard in the family kitchen. I was fascinated that the ingredients listed on the label read, "Prepared with sugar and water; phosphoric acid, caffeine, extractives from coca leaves (cocaine removed) and cola nuts, and other flavoring materials, colored with caramel."


Sadly there is no date on the bottle anywhere.

Bart Walters’ “Wapiti Circle,” in Westminster, Colorado

Caroline and I are visiting Bart Walters' "Wapiti Circle," in Westminster, Colorado. Thurs. August 24, 2017. It appears that municipalities in Colorado have a vibrant public art public policy. Westminster Colorado is huge, both in size and population. There are approximately 100,000 folks living here, just north of Denver, in what appears, at first impression, to be in reclaimed desert, within sight of the Rocky Mountains.


Of course, Mr. Walters is a local Westminster, Md. artist. Caroline and I visited the elks featured in this sculpture display at Reed St. and Walnut Creek, when they were being created in Westminster Md.


The sculptures are magnificent.
