Thomas Johnson Bridge Takes
Backseat In State Plans
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
State ofcials told local political and
business leaders Tuesday that the Hogan
Administration has committed about $14
billion for infrastructure construction
projects around the state, but with $75
billion in needs it became plain that not
all projects, even those that are critical
to St. Marys and Calvert counties, can
be funded.
Much of the discussion at the South-
ern Maryland Higher Education Center
in California owed around two bridge
replacement projects: the Harry W. Nice
bridge that connects Charles County to
Virginia and the Thomas Johnson Bridge
that spans the Patuxent River.
The Nice bridge has the priority, while
the Johnson bridge project will continue to
languish for perhaps another decade.
When asked when construction of the
new bridge would take place, Jim Ports,
Deputy Chief of Operations for Maryland
Department of Transportation (MDOT)
said only that there was $15 million in de-
sign funding for the bridge.
Were not there yet, Ports said. Those owns the entire bridge and the water up to
decisions have not been made.
Both Ports and Will Pines, director of
Project Development for Maryland Trans-
portation Authority, touted engineering
changes that reduced the estimated initial
cost of the Nice bridge replacement from
$1.1 billion to $769 million.
Top Canadian Ofcial Fatally
Struck Pedestrian Years Ago
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
Julie Payette, a former Piney Point resi-
dent and Canadian citizen, who was in-
volved in a fatal pedestrian striking here
six years ago is on track to become one of
thehighest level ofcials.
Payette, 53, has been selected as the
Governor-General designate of Canada
by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau but her
candidacy has already drawn much news
coverage, with Canadian news outlet iP-
olitics writingabout an alleged assault
charge against her dating back to 2011, the
same year she fatally struck a pedestrian
in Leonardtown.
Payette was never charged in the death
of Theresa Agnes Potts, then a 55-year-old
Leonardtown resident.
She was not at fault, said Sheriff Tim-
othy K. Cameron. The pedestrian was
at fault.
According to crash investigators Potts
entered the roadway at the intersection
of Hollywood and Point Lookout Road
from the northbound shoulder and at-
tempted to cross the north and southbound
lanes. As Potts attempted to cross the
The County Times
The Nice bridge project would expand
the span to four lanes, two moving south
and two moving north, and is projected to
reduce the seasonal trafc jams that peak
in the summer time, state ofcials said.
But Del. Jerry Clark (R-Dist.29C)
asked what local leaders could do to re-
prioritize improvements for the Johnson
bridge project.
You talk about seasonal trafc back-
ups on the Harry Nice bridge but we ex-
perience everyday backups on the Thomas
Johnson Bridge, Clark said. We need to
come up with some way to jumpstart that.
Gary Hodge Regional President of
Policy Advisors asked about efforts to nd
partnerships to help fund the Nice bridge
project, to help return money to Maryland
for other projects.
Whats being done to leverage funds
from the federal government and Virgin-
ia? Hodge asked.
State ofcials said they were making
headway in getting funding from Virgin-
ia as a partner but reiterated that Maryland

tical about Maryland getting signicant
funding, from either Virginia or the fed-
eral government, to help defray costs for

roadway, she was faced with a do-not-
cross signal and failed to walk within the
marked crosswalk.
Potts crossed the northbound lanes and
when she entered the southbound lanes of
Point Lookout Road, she was struck by
Payettes vehicle. Potts was transported
to Prince Georges Hospital by helicopter,
where she succumbed to her injuries.
Cameron said the sheriffs ofce has no
record of any assault charge and that the
lack of records on the Maryland on-line
judiciary case search was indicative of
expungement.
The iPolitics story reported that the as-
sault charge was leveled by Payettes then-
husband William Flynn, a former Royal
Canadian Air Force pilot who was work-
ing as a test pilot for Lockheed.
On-line court records reveal that di-
vorce proceedings between the two con-
cluded back in 2013.
Payette is an engineer and former astro-
naut who was own two space missions
and has numerous honorary degrees aside
from her engineering degree.

Angela Kalnasy was just recent-
ly released from hospital care and
returned home.
Kalnasy is suing Gellings for $75,000
as well as his insurance provider, GEICO,
for $250,000, claiming they have refused
to honor a policy Kalnasy held in case he
insured driver.
In his court lings Kalnasy stated that
Gellings insurance was not enough to
cover the near half-million in medical ex-
penses both the Kalnasys have incurred.
According to reports from the sheriffs
ofce immediately after the crash, Gell-
ings was traveling southbound on Three
Notch Road when for unknown reasons
her car left the roadway, driving off-road
until she came to Mechanicsville Road
and collided with the truck carrying the
four-person party, which was stopped at a
red light.
Gellings was never charged for the inci-
inuence of drugs or alcohol according to

Prosecutors Drop Charges
In HOA Theft Case Sheriffs Office Investigating
By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
A litany of theft charges filed against
the former property manager of the West-
bury Community Association has been
dropped by prosecutors, online court
records show, but officials in States At-
torney Richard Fritzs office say Torya
Nicole Timms is still under investigation.
All 16 counts against Timms were
dropped this week, online court
recordsshow.
Officials would not comment further on
the nature of the investigation.
The total amount of money Timms was
alleged to have stolen from the homeown-
ers association totaled $20,858.
According to charging documents filed
in county District Court state police be-
gan their investigation back in March of
2016 regarding transactions of Westbury
Community Association funds; in speak-
ing with an accountant who worked with
the association, Trooper Steven Ditoto
found that almost 20 checks from March
through June of last year were made pay-
able to simply as cash.
She advised this was strange because
the community association does not typi-
cally write checks for cash, Ditoto wrote.
She further noted that the items in the
memo line referred to what appeared to
be normal expenses, however, those ex-
penses have also been paid directly to the
appropriate recipient.
The County Times
A lawyer who worked for the commu-
nity association told Ditoto that Timms
had told her she had made out the checks
payable to cash because she had been
told to by a local accounting firm, Askey
andAskey.
That firm told police investigating the
suspicious cashed checks that they had not
advised Timms to do so, charging docu-
ments stated.
Ms. Askey advised that prior to the
community association ending their ser-
vices with Askey and Askey, the firms
accountants were questioning certain ex-
penses by the community association as
odd or suspicious, Ditoto wrote in an ap-
plication for a statement of charges.
Additionally, several contractors inter-
viewed by Ditoto who had provided ser-
vices to the community association told
police that they had received payments by
check and not by cash.
Ditoto wrote in court papers that he had
determined that 14 checks were cashed
with memo lines indicating falseexpenses.
The money obtained from these checks
is no longer in possession of the Westbury
Community Association.
The checks allegedly cashed by Timms
ranged from as low as $8 to $6,000, ac-
cording to court papers.

Revolution Take
Opener in Extras
The Southern Maryland Blue Crabs (5-5)
dropped the series opener July 17 against the
York Revolution (6-5) 6-5, as the Revolution
rallied in the ninth to forced extras, eventu-
ally winning in 11innings.
The starting pitchers battled through three,
trading scoreless innings. The Revolution
opened the scoring in the fourth, getting to
Daryl Thompson for three runs in the inning.
Back-to-back singles started the inning, be-
fore Thompson recorded two outs. Luis Cruz
followed with a three-run homerun, putting
the Revolution ahead early.
The Blue Crabs responded immediately,
putting up a trio of runs in the bottom half
of the inning. Michael Snyder started it with
a one-out single, with an error and a walk
following to load the bases. Luis Alen came
through with an RBI single, scoring Snyder
and Cory Vaughn to cut the lead to one. Pat-
rick Palmeiro was next, seeing ten pitches in
his at-bat before finally grounding out to sec-
ond, but scoring L.J. Hoes from third, tying
the game at 3-3.
Pitching took over from there, as both
teams went scoreless through the next three
frames. The Blue Crabs were able to scratch
across a run in the bottom of the eighth, with
the help of an error. Snyder got the rally go-
ing once again, reaching on a throwing error

by the third baseman. Hoes came through
two batters later, singling to right field, scor-
ing Snyder from second to take a 4-3 lead.
Southern Maryland then turned to closer
Cody Eppley (BS,1), looking to lock down
the win. Eppley picked up the first out, be-
fore walking Alonzo Harris, who advanced
to third on a single from Alexi Casilla. Isa-
ias Tejeda followed with a long single off the
left-field wall, scoring both runners and put-
ting the Revs back ahead5-4.
York turned the bottom of the ninth to
their own All-Star closer, Brad Allen. Allen
picked up two quick outs, before back-to-
back doubles from Zach Cone and Edwin
Garcia tied the game at 5-5. After stranding
Garcia, the game headed to extra innings, the
second time the Blue Crabs have played ex-
tras this week.
A scoreless 10th inning set-up the 2-3-4
hitters in the York lineup to face Jesse Beal
(5-2) in the 11th inning. Casilla led-off with a
single, coming all the way around from first
to score on a double from Tejeda and take
the lead back for the Revs. York turned their
newfound 6-5 lead over to Joe Van Meter
(S,1) in the bottom of the inning. Van Meter
worked a 1-2-3 inning, picking up his first
save of the season for the Revolution. The
win moved York ahead of Southern Mary-

provided by the college contribute greatly
to the overall strength of our community

CSM many years ago allowed me to take
advantage of opportunities which became
a foundation for my career path and future
educational achievements. As an employer in
Southern Maryland, Community Bank has
been able to hire CSM alumni who are well
educated, skilled and prepared to contribute.
We are truly fortunate to have this institution

School Roof Replacement Develops Cost Overrun
By Dick Myers
Staff Writer
Part of the roof at Piney Point Elemen-
tary School is in bad shape. The deck
was severely deterioratd much beyond our
expectations and experience, St. Marys
County Public Schools (SMCPS) Director
of Design and Construction Larry Hart-
wick told the school board at its July 19
meeting.
The board approved a contract award
for the Piney Point Elementary School
Roof Replacement to Island Contracting,
Incorporated on January 11, 2017, in the
amount of $1,091,000. There was also a
construction contingency of $150,000.
Thats not going to be enough to cover the
cost of the problems uncovered. The board
unanimously approved adding an addi-
tional $120,000 to the contingency fund.
According to a memo provided to the
board by Hartwick, The Piney Point El-
ementary School roof is composed of two

on the deck to determine if the deck had
sufficient strength for the mechanical fas-

than the tournament and will include sev-
eral interactive clinics about putting, chip-
ping and full-swing techniques and will
end with an awards ceremony.
By sponsoring and attending the Sip
and Swing for an Impact, we have the op-
portunity to socialize with others, be a part
of helping to provide golfing technique les-
sons, while showing our support for the
great work that CSM consistently does for
its students, said Brenda Lowe, a CSM
Foundation director and SMWL past presi-
dent, director and executive officer. I have

Lawn Mower Race Will Have Trans-Atlantic Twist

By Guy Leonard
Staff Writer
This year marks the 25th anniversary of
the start of the sport of lawn mower racing
in the United States and the commemo-
rative race is set to take place at Bowles
Farm in the 7th District next weekend but
local racers and those from around the
country can expect stiff competition this
time around.
The originators of lawn mower racing
are competing and theyre coming all the
way from the United Kingdom to test their
American cousins.
I think its going to be one of the
best races weve ever had, said Tommy
Bowles, owner of Bowles farm who do-
nates a racetrack every year for the race.
Theyre coming from all over, from
Sell it - Buy it
atBuy it at
Sell It,
Oklahoma, Florida and Kentucky and
other states.
The entrance of the British racers
seems to have attracted even more atten-
tion to the lawn mower races than usual,
Bowlessaid.
But the race has become an institution
all its own here in St. Marys County,
hesaid.
Its turned into a nice family event,
Bowles said. I think thats why they
come from so far.
Bowles said the British rac-
ers scouted out the Bowles Farm
track last year and decided it was the
kind of race they wanted to enter.
Ronnie Mattingly, past president of the
7th District Volunteer Rescue Squad and
event coordinator, said this would be the
13th year the races will take place at the
Bowles Farm, with all proceeds benefiting
the rescue squad.
The British racers, who have been rac-
ing lawn mowers for decades and were
the first to do so with the sport eventually
migrating to America, are coming to help
celebrate the 25th anniversary of the sport
here. Racing lawn mowers are being built
especially for them to compete, Mattingly
said, since bringing their lawnmowers
from Great Britain would have proved too
difficult.
It should be pretty exciting, Mattingly
said. Its pretty cool.
The style of racing differs significantly
between British and Americans, Matting-
ly said.
Where as the British put a great empha-
sis on long races that require great stami-
na, Americans prefer much shorter races
but with much greater speeds.
racing, though they are serious machines
with the top speed record for a racing
mower topping out at just over 95 miles
an hour.
Many of the lawn mowers that will hit
the track next weekend are capable of at
80 miles an hour, Kaufmann said, though
they will likely not exceed 40 miles an
hour in competition.
We go fast but not too fast, Kaufmann
told The County Times. When we start
those engines we take our racing as seri-
ously as riders in any other racing event.
But if you cant laugh at yourself at a
lawn mower race you should probably do
something else.
Kaufmann said though the styles of rac-
ing between British and Americans are
different, the reasons for participating are
the same: just the love of the sport.
We look to them we never race for
money, Kaufmann said. Weve held to
the British for 25 years.

State Park Pride

By William Stewart
Contributing Writer
Point Lookout State Park, located in
Scottland, MD, is a place to take the fam-
ily for a weekend of fun. According to the
parks assistant manager Ranger Jonas
Williams, before actually becoming a park
Point Lookout was used during the Civil
War for the Union troops fortification.
Following the Battle of Gettysburg,
Point Lookout was used to contain incar-
cerated Confederate prisoners. Union au-
thorities were warned in 1864 of a raid, led
by Maryland General Bradley T. Johnson,
was planned to free the prisoners.
Almost 4,000 out of the 50,000 prison-
ers held at the prison died from starvation,
and exposure to disease. Upon entering
the park today visitors pass by a memorial
built for the deceased Confederate prison-
ers. It is said that the spirits of fallen pris-
oners still haunt the park.
After the war, the Point began to be used
for a different purpose. Williams said: It
was a resort, almost like an Ocean City-
style thing on the Western Shore of the
Chesapeake. After becoming a state park
in the 1960s Point Lookout now generates
a lot of visitor traffic. The park still con-
tains the fortifications used by the Union
troops, and they are now offered as tourist
sites near the parks beach area.
Along with the fortifications park
guests are welcome to visit the lighthouse,
which was built in the 1830s and stands
tall at the tip of the park. Volunteers open
the lighthouse doors on the first Saturday
of each month, visitors are allowed to walk
through the house, and even climb inside
the actual light tower to look out over
thePoint.

Clydesdales March in D.C. Parade
In 1902 Sebastian Wagon Co. started
building what would today be known as
the worlds largest circus wagon, the Two
Hemispheres Bandwagon. Barnum &
Baileys spent $4,200.00 to have the wag-
on built by the New York based compa-
ny. The two hemispheres represented 12
countries in which the circus had toured.
On the Eastern Hemisphere side was
Great Britain, France, Russia, Germany,
Austria and Italy. On the Western Hemi-
sphere side was Chile, Argentine, Brazil,
Mexico, Canada and the United States.
The name Barnum & Bailey was above
the globe on the Eastern Hemisphere and
the name Ringling Brothers was above the
Western Hemisphere. The wagon is 28
feet long, 10 feet 6 inches tall, eight feet
wide and weighs over 13,000 lbs. In 2016
the two hemisphere wagon went up for
auction and sold for a total of $250,000.00
to Peter Gorman of Gorman Studios, Inc.
out of Vancouver, Canada. Gorman want-
ed to add this wagon to his collect of r pre-
viously owned circus wagons. The wagon
is now stored in the International Circus
Hall of Fame winter quarters in Peru, IN.
Peter Gorman wanted to have the wag-
on on display in Washington, D.C. for the

tional Mall for circus goes to enjoy the

Americans with Disabilities
Act Anniversary Observed
It was on July 26, 1990 when President
George H. W. Bush signed the Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA) into law. The
law was designed to ensure the civil rights
of people with disabilities
The legislation, deemed one of the most
compassionate and successful civil rights
laws in American history, established a
clear and comprehensive mandate for the
elimination of discrimination against in-
dividuals with disabilities. It has sought to
ensure they are respected as equal citizens
with equal opportunities. Each year the
commissioners of St. Marys County pay
tribute to the Act with a special proclama-
tion ceremony.

part of his display, Gorman wanted to add
the wagon to the National Independence
Day Parade held on July 4th, 2017 during
the festival. Peter went searching for a
hitch close to our Nations Capital to pull
his wagon in the parade. Suttler Post Farm
Clydesdales came up in his search. Peter
made contact with Wayne Mast, owner
of Suttler Post Farm Clydesdales, LLC.
Having been a part of the 2013 and 2014
Preakness Stakes was something new for
our show hitch, it was a great honor to be
a part of and this National Parade pulling
the two hemispheres wagon is just another
feather in our hat said Wayne. Once ev-
erything was a green light to go, things
started moving forward quickly. With less
than two months notice about the parade,
the Suttler Post Farm Clydesdales (SPF)
swung into action. Preparing their eight
horse hitch for a parade route wasnt any-
thing new for the crew and horses, howev-
er pulling this massive wagon was some-
thing the teamster and horses have never
done before.
Parade day finally came and the crew of
17 left the barn around 7:30 am to make
the trip into D.C. They traveled with a 53
semi trailer hauling the horses and part of
the crew, while the other remaining crew
members traveled in the 34 motor coach.
This made for less vehicles to move from
On the 27th anniversary of the Ameri-
cans with Disabilities Act, we celebrate
and recognize the progress that has been
made, said Commissioner Todd Morgan
(4th District). We reaffirm the principles
of equality and inclusion and recommit
our efforts to reach full ADA compliance.
In commemoration of the Acts 27th an-
niversary, commissioners encourage pub-
lic officials, business leaders, people with
disabilities and all St. Marys County citi-
zens to pursue the ADAs promise of equal
opportunity and to celebrate the freedom
it has brought to our way of life.

They had to assign drivers to stay with the
vehicles because once the parade started
the vehicles had to be moved. The arrival
time was 9:15 am because a security sweep
had to be done before anyone was allowed
into the parade area. Once they arrived,
all horses were unloaded and tied to the
trailer to be braided, harnessed and lines
ran. After the trailers left the assembly
area, the horses where moved to the area
of the wagon on the National Mall. They
hooked all eight horses to the wagon and
kicked of the first step close to 12:30pm.

top of the 10 ft box above the wheel hors-
es. Daniel is Wayne Mast son and driver
for the SPF team. Paul Sparrow, who pre-
viously drove the 40 horse hitch as men-
tioned before, rode as Daniels assistant.
Paul was brought in by the World Circus
Museum as an expert on the wagon to help
Daniel with getting hitched to the wagon
and as a guide to assist if needed. Along
with Paul, Bill Couser was also brought
in as another set of eyes while hitching,
as Bill was the lead outrider for Paul and
the 40 horse hitch. Bill rode on the wagon
as the brake man. Bill seat behind the
driver and assistant driver and applied
brake when needed. As the hitch made

From Cradle to Stage

by Virginia Hanlon Grohl, foreword by Dave Grohl
By Terri Schlichenmeyer

Turn that music down!
Yep, you heard that a time or two dur-
ing your teen years; it usually meant that
one or both of your parents had enough of
your tunes, played at high volume. Some-
times it was Dad, but Mom yelled those
words up the stairs just as often. Dont you
wish, as in From Cradle to Stage by
Virginia Hanlon Grohl, she once said to
turn it up?
When Dave Grohl, frontman for the
Foo Fighters, was a kid, he and his family
spent hours together, making memories.
Many of those good times included mu-
sic: listening, harmonizing, and going to
jazzworkshops.
His mother, Virginia Hanlon Grohl,
fondly remembers those days and she of-
ten wondered about the mystical force that
urges some of us to listen, to play, to sing,
to surround ourselves with music. She
wondered about other musical moms, too,
so she decided to seek them out.
Michael Stipe from R.E.M. grew up in
many places: his dad was in the Army, and
Stipes mother learned to live with uncer-
tainty and anxiety during his deploy-
ments. That included the Cuban Missile
Crisis, which she recounts here.
When Dr. Dre was still an infant,
Compton burned in the Watts Riots of
1965. It was a frightening sight for his
then-teenage mother, who is proud that he
avoided street life, the thug society, but
was taken aback by his four-letter-word-
loaded songs.
Miranda Lambert grew up helping
her parents in their private investigation
company. After the business fell on hard
times, Lamberts parents, Bev and Rick,
repaid her work by doggedly helping her
become a star performer.
The mother of Rushs lead vocalist,
Geddy Lee, is a Holocaust survivor who
hoped her son would become a doctor.
Kelly Clarkson so loved to write lyrics
that she got her mother into legal trouble.
Pharrell Williams mom has four college
degrees. And after a childhood spent with
a selfish, difficult woman, Amy Wine-
houses mom vowed to be everything
her mother had not been.
Nice. Thats about how one could de-
scribe From Cradle to Stage. Its just
got that nice vibe, like cordially genteel
ladies who have afternoon tea, or who
make cookies for guests and belong to a
coffeeklatch.
In many cases, in fact, thats exactly
what it is. Author Virginia Hanlon Grohl
says she literally sat down over tea and
cookies with many of these women, to
discuss their lives and memories of their
famous children. The interviews, set be-
tween Grohls own diary-like vignettes,
are clean, pleasant, warm, and polite, as
if they were conducted for a glossy older-
womens magazine. Readers may catch
brief insights into the childhood of a fa-
vorite star, but nothing untoward.
And thats nice - but will it keep read-
ers attention?
That will depend on the reader, of
course. If youre looking for something
wild, raucous, funny, lively, or scandal-
ous, youll be really very disappointed
here. But if youre looking for something
thats pleasantly nice for yourself or for
Mom, From Cradle to Stage is a book
you cant turn down.

Double the Fun
Have you been to the Twin Beaches,
Chesapeake Beach and North Beach, in
a while? If you are in need of a day trip,
but dont have time for Ocean City or the
mountains of Maryland, you might think
of spending a day at The Twin Beaches. I
was lucky enough to be asked to be a tour
guide for my dear friend Karen and her
grown daughter Tanya this past Sunday
since I have been going to the beaches
since I was born when the old amusement
park was till in operation. What fun! We
were all very excited to have a day where
we were free from time constraints of any
kind and could just enjoy each others com-
pany and be open to a day of adventure.
I would highly recommend a Sunday
adventure because everything is open on
Sundays for the summer there; all the an-
tique shops, art galleries, the wine shop
with free tastings (which Tanya and I
thought was wonderful), ice cream places,
the tea shop, all restaurants, Sweet Sues
Bakery and Coffee Shop, and the two mu-
seums; Chesapeake Beach Railway Mu-
seum and The Bayside History Museum
in North Beach.
If you have children, you could spend
the day between the Chesapeake Beach
Railway Trail, The Chesapeake Beach
Water Park, and the large netted off Bay
waters at North Beach, and go home with
children that could possibly, hopefully
sleep through the evening and into the
next day.
Here is a little information about the
1.4 mile long Railway Trail: Between
1900 and 1935, the Chesapeake Beach
Railway whisked vacationers from Wash-
ington, DC, to the grand hotels, beaches
and boardwalk of the resort town of
somdbmx.com

Chesapeake Beach, Maryland. Now tour-
ists and residents alike can enjoy a differ-
ent kind of luxury as they walk or pedal
on the Chesapeake Beach Railway Trail,
which occupies a portion of the abandoned
railroad corridor. Unusual for a rail-trail,
the Chesapeake Beach Railway Trail rests
almost entirely on a wooden boardwalk
just above serene Fishing Creek and the
marshlands surrounding it the trail is
open for bicycling.
I cant say which part of the day was my
favorite; though the first hour and a half
(which went by all too quickly) spent in
the Butterflies & Wishes Tea & Sweets
shop in Chesapeake Beach was the most
relaxing and beautiful. Sandy and Alan
Samler are the most gracious hosts. They
may not have a huge shop but there are so
many treasures of local art, unusual hand
painted items, teas, coffees, and choco-
lates that it took us quite a while to drink
our teas and shop. I came away with three
boxes of tea; one called The Titanic tea
blend which was the actual blend of tea
used on the Titanic. It has become my
favorite.
Our outdoor caf lunch at The Rod and
Reel was lovely. I still have a poem writ-
ten for me when I was 6 years old, by an
unknown lady at The Rod and Reel (see
photo). We were able to see St. Marys
Countys own Gary Flowers and his great
band Out Of Order set-up and later come
back to hear play. The Rod and Reels
summer concert series, Rock the Dock is
a great beach music venue with everyone
from The Spinners, Four Tops, Eli Young,
to The Gin Blossoms. Many concerts are
free.
We even had one shop in North Beach,
The Wheel, that re-opened for us, since
the owner, Celia Molofsky was pretty
much closed up a few minutes before 4
p.m. So glad she let us in. The Wheel is
part boutique clothing store, art and jew-
elry gallery, and part beer, wine and live
music tavern. We ended our wonderful
day at Running Hare Vineyard with Tan-
ya and I enjoying a craft beer tasting at
their onsite Calvert Brewery tasting area.
A great day from beginning to end. And
yesI am available as a tour guide or
Guber guide + Uber : )
To each new days grand adventure,
Shelby
