Eating out in Ocean City

So I found a bar type place on the bay BJ's.  Not much on water that I can tell.  I'm going to ask at hotel next time.  Marlin at the Doubletree I ate at the first time.  No to 32 Palm in Hilton.  Lisa told me about a few places but they are not on the water.  So need to keep looking.  The bay view is beautiful.  Waiter good here at BJ's but took forever for a hostess to greet me.  Kind of like Banana Boat......

Order room service and sit on deck!!!

Stayed at Hilton
Really nice deck/porch facing beach
Do not eat at restaurant for dinner
Indoor and outdoor pool nice.  Indoor opens at 5:00 a.m.
Starbucks in lobby opens at 6
Flight through Charlotte American Airlines
National car rental but don't fly in late.  Avis closed.
30 min drive to hotel from airport
45 m to Snow Hill from hotel
Breakfast at hotel same

Preston County WVa

So I think it makes sense to spend 2 nights as the last flight out of PIT to ATL is at 6:40 and traffic and GPS ladies are interesting.  I think I'll spend two nights at the INN and get coffee in am.  Maybe stop to eat in Morgantown on the way in as I am in the middle of nowhere. Will be coaching at Kingwood Elem. Stay at Modern Homestead.  Stayed by college the last time.  Modern Homestead is too noisy on main road.

Update
Try to leave earlier so I don't get stuck in rush hour traffic in PIT.  I stayed at Hilton Garden Inn in Morgantown.  Can't walk to Univ so maybe look at the other Hilton closer to there.  It's an hour to Preston County from here so need to do differently next visit.

Fly into PIT

Ate at Sargasso's in Morgantown.  Try staying at Marriott closer to college.  Need almost an hour to drive to schools.  Plan to work on Intervention next coaching visit.

1-20
Stayed at Marriott.  Nice.  Still 45 m drive to school.  Coaching at Kingwood this visit.  Teachers in the a.m. and they have to meet in pm.  Not sure how much will get done.  Some want to see Intervention groups but with controlled readers?

Baltimore

This is such a sad and littered and deserted place in some parts, but staying downtown at the Homewood Suites which is combined w/ Hilton Garden with access to a beautiful gym with a fabulous pool.  The restaurants are plentiful! Stay here always!!

Huntsville April 2018

So I stayed downtown at the Embassy Suites for the 2nd time.  Bring a suit.  There is also a Spa on 2nd floor.  Managers wine at 5:30.  Nice rooms.  Do this again if come back.
Ate at Cotton Row.  They also have munchies at cocktail hour, but it is where you get breakfast not at the bar. Nice little Starbucks coffee shop as well.

Hill and Plain and Northville Intervention coaching

Stay at Hilton Garden Inn in Danbury but ask them for a quiet room as the walls are really thin.  Starbucks close by.  Face shopping center and turn left and it is on the right.  Rent a car!  I flew into White Plains the first 2 times, but Bradley the last time.  I think Bradley has more choices for times and is less $$$

Had to get used to the elevators
Ate at Hanks-looked good for seafood, negative for veggies

NYC to DC on train

Yes, but it was a little scary when the speed got up there.  Stay at the Madison in DC.  They put me in the penthouse.  Very nice service as Hilton has just acquired it.  Took a cab to my school and Capital Sedan to airport.  No stress!

NYC

No to the Renwick Hotel (Hilton) in midtown.  Staff nice, but internet a problem.  Holes in towels, no soap in dispenser.  No coffee until 6:45 and none in room.  No food till 7:00.
