Eatin’ And Pickin’ In The Land Of Pleasant Living

If you can't get great seafood in Eastern Maryland, where can you get it?

Tuesday Myron and Zach and I climbed up into my red truck and headed east. We stopped just shy of the Delaware state line in Eastern Maryland and got a great dinner before we banged it on in to Dover where I was to play the Schwartz Theater For The Arts.

When we got up in the morning, we searched around for a diner, and lo… there was The Hollywood Diner.

What a way to start the day!

The food was great… diner style, and check this out:

Real old school

The day unraveled and before you know it, it was show time.

   My daughter and I loved your concert at the Scwartz Center for the arts!! It was very special for me, because of the many times seeing Jefferson Airplane, and Hot Tuna in the San Francisco bay area during the 60’s and 70’s! So many great memories!! We are looking forward to seeing electric Hot Tuna, and hope you might consider performing in the Seattle or Spokane WA area sometime.

   The esteemed, Phil Jackson, was asked after on of his NBA Coaching Championships… “Is this your greatest moment..or when you won as a player?” Phil responded, “Greatest Moment…New Years Eve….Grateful Dead….at The Fillmore.” Thought I’d share.
