Heya guys,

I got a new assignment, in Rockville MD. I am currently on route to
there.

If any of you rfc'er are along route I-80, give me a holler. Lets
have lunch, dinner, a snack, or a drink. Or just meet.

I might change my route along the way. I want to cross paths with a
Penzeys, so I might go a bit south of that.

And when I get closer to Chicago, and farther east, I might head a bit
south. Just to let you know.

And Margaret, count me in for your brunch, definately! I got the
weekend off: it is written into my contract!!!!

Shady Grove Adventist Hospital. I will be working in their Neonatal
Intensive Care unit.

They put out a call for nurses in the past day or so: they are being
overwhelmed with babies, sick babies, preemies.

This will be exciting: I haven't really been in the DC area since
about 20 years ago. Oh, here and there for a very few days at a time.
I used to live in that region, so it will be interesting to see how it
has changed.

I elected to come back east for part of the winter, to get a taste of
cold weather again. I may live to regret this. This transplanted
Virginian has lived in northern California for much of the last 18
years, and has almost forgotten what it is like to have to wear real
winter clothes and shoes. I was still wearing my sandals and summer
clothes as of yesterday. Probably today as well. That should start
changing a bit soon, as I head towards Chicago and that area.

I am slowly making my way across country. I am in Reno tonight and
will probably be in the vicinity of Salt Lake City tonight coming up.
From then on, depending on who calls out to me, and various other
factors, I might head on across towards Omaha Nebraska, Chicago area,
then towards PA on down to Rockvilled. But then again, I might
change my path, and drop on down a bit and head thru Denver, and
Kansas, St. Louis, and that area on over. I probably won't know til
the night before which way I am going.

If any of you RFC'ers are in my path, which is changeable at best, let
me know, so I can stop and have a bite to eat with you, or at least a
cup of coffee. Maybe you all can let me know the places I "can't
miss" along the way, to find some good eats. I read the Roadfood
site, and Chowhound, but I might miss something. I will probably miss
a lot, actually. Any way, holler at me, if you want me to stop for a
short bit in your region: short being defined as being an hour or so.

I am usually online in the morning and evening, so if anyone posts to
me, I will get it at those times, and I can make plans accordingly.
And I can let you all know where I am.

While you're there, try Mother's Pizza and Dub's Subs. They
probably suck now, but in the late '70s they were the best.
