Out For Another One (March 21 2021)

...And a rather good one at that! More scenery and history! But first-a visit to some of our good friends in Ellicott City! Long time no see! We even visit a business for the first time-the Ellicott Distilling Company, offering home-brewed (or is that home-distilled?) spirits produced right here in Ellicott City! And, yes...it's bullfrog-approved. After EC it's a scenic drive to places on the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal with some first-time routes. We'll even drive through an historic culvert beneath the canal that's a road when it's dry...but carries a stream when it rains! That was 1820s state-of-the-art. So was the canal. On our return trip we pass through Clear Spring, which derived its name from a clear spring we have yet to stop and check out. A couple more mountain views too. As you see by this recent screen gem-I'm still doing my thing, and will continue to...as tolerated (as they say). And, of course-there are the obvious reasons for the slight slowdown. Both Dolly and I are fully covid-vaccinated, but being in the high-risk category, we still have to follow the existing precautions (and stress that others who might have received the vaccination do so as well-the more protection, the better-we value our viewers). But-already-got another one in the works!
