I do have things I miss. There are 5 golf courses I rather be playing anyday than the ones here. I miss going in a restaurant and ordering a dozen steamed crabs. I miss turning on the news to hear Ravens Report or the latest updates from camp, hometown sports in general. I miss not being able to shop at the new Wegman's Grocery Store built across the street from my old home. I miss Box Hill Pizza and the best subs, pizza and crab cakes anywhere. I miss going down to Ocean City and walking the boardwalk and eating Thrasher's French Fries and Boog's BBQ. These are few that come to mind.

Do any of the television stations in Baltimore stream their newscasts live so you can watch the sports reports? A few of the Chicago television stations now stream their late afternoon/early evening and 10:00 pm news broadcasts. I can watch the Chicago news when visiting my dad in Iowa, or if I am working past 5:00 pm, watch the 5:00 pm weekday newscast on my smart phone.

Would that be Ocean City, Maryland? I loved visiting my aunt and uncle who lived in Silver Spring and owned a condo in Ocean City. My first time in the Atlantic Ocean was when I visited them when I was in college. Would love to get some crab cakes right now...
