TALON COUNTY IN MARILYND

Eunice and I decided to invite Marilyn and Minerva on a road trip to Talbot County in Maryland.  Naturally we had to rediscover and so we named in Talon County in Marilynd.  We borrowed a car and as Eunice and I steered, not being able to see the windshield,  Minerva looked out the window for us while Marilyn checked the GPS.  The problem is that Marilyn is a kleptomaniac and trying to steal the GPS.  Thank goodness Minerva is around to watch her.  First destination was the town of Easton.


We stopped into the office of tourism and met Cassandra who showed us maps and pointed out places for us to experience as well as giving us directions to the places that we would be staying overnight.
On the way to the inn, we stopped so that I could view an historic marker.
We then checked into The Tidewater Inn on Dover Street, just across the way from the Avalon Theatre.

 All four of us shared a room on this trip and got along just fine.  The bed at this inn was really high and required a stepping stool to get into.  I think Marilyn tried to steal the stool afterward.

The next morning we went to Sherwood's Landing to have breakfast at the Inn at Perry Cabin in the town of St. Michaels.  It was one of many relaxing places. Marilyn and Minerva were off someplace.  I'm guessing that Marilyn was doing her klepto thing and Minerva was scolding her. 
We hung out in St. Michaels going off to the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum.  There was so much to see and this place was really big.  We went into this room where people were helping to build a ship.  Marilyn was trying to steal the ship and the builders decided to make her the figure head.


We then toured the lighthouse with Marilyn trying to hang from the rafters for a different view.  I think she upset the person touring us.  One of the buildings had a display of duck decoys and another had an exhibit on fowl guns.  Marilyn almost got her head shot off trying to do her thing.


A wine tasting at St. Michaels Winery was next on the itinerary. Marilyn made an attempt at a bottle of wine. Minerva caught her.  Eunice and I didn't notice as we were too buy discussing the nose, acidity and flavors.
