Ärende: Blob's Park
===================
Hi Dale,

 RH> Why not?  We'll be in western NY for a bit in mid July, then out to
 RH> Kentucky for a few days, then to the Catskills before getting to the

 DS>   When do you think you will leave home?  And will you be able to read
 DS>   the echo while traveling?   If not, I'll have to make sure you know
 DS>   about whatever plans are made.

We plan to leave here July 10.  As far as I know, Steve will be bringing
his lap top along so we can stay connected (more so for e-mail than fido
tho).  If you want, I'll e-mail you my cell phone which will be along
but probably not able to make a connection in the Catskills.


 DS>   As of now, we are expecting that Blob's park will be a Friday night
 DS>   thing.  They open at 7 pm, with music and dancing starting a bit
 DS> after   8 pm.   We'll stay as long as the group wants to stay:-}}

Sounds good; we're not into the dancing but if the music isn't too loud
to talk over, we'll hang around until we're kicked out. (G)


 DS>   No decisions have been made on what to do for the people who get
 DS> here   on Thursday.   I have some ideas of places we could go for
 DS> dinner and   will put them up for discussion soon.   I'll also put up
 DS> some thoughts   on group trips during the day on Friday.

 DS>   We had talked about that Korean Restaurant next to one of the Korean
 DS>   supermarkets.   Gail and I stopped by there this afternoon and
 DS> looked   at their menu.   They did not have one I could bring home,
 DS> nor do they   have a web site.   My reaction on looking at the menu
 DS> was that
 DS>   it was a bit expensive.  Of course, I don't know what many of the
 DS>   items were, but jotted down some notes.   They have a propane fueled
 DS>   burner at each table.   They had eight types of Korean BBQ priced at
 DS>   $18 to $24.   They had three noodle dishes at about $12.   There
 DS> were   four "casserole" dishes at $30 to 35 (I hope that was for two,
 DS> but
 DS>   don't know).  There were seven Japanese dishes for about $15 each
 DS> and   a bunch of sushi bar type of stuff for prices from $4 to $10
 DS> each.

That is pretty pricy; we like the little mom and pop places in HI where
we could get a good sized meal for under $15.00, total.  It was usually
enough to feed us for a couple of days so sometimes we got a combo to
split and walked out with a bill of under $10.00.


 DS>   To tell the truth, I did not see anything that made me want to
 DS>   experiment there at those prices.   I will say that it seems to be a
 DS>   popular place and the majority of the clientel is Asian.

I'd just as soon skip it at thse prices.


 DS>   You and Steve may be able to satisfy your want for a visit back to
 DS>   Korean food at some hole-in-the wall near Fort Meade or at the lunch
 DS>   counter in the Korean Grocery.  If you want me to research near Ft.
 DS>   Meade, let me know.

I suspect there are several places in and around Fort Meade that would
satisfy us. (G) If not, we'll plan for the Korean Grocery.  As of now, I
don't know if there's anything about Fort Meade that you need to check
out for us; we'll probably go on line for reservations, etc.  If
something comes up that their web site can't address, I'll get back with
you.  I'll also have Steve do Map Quest or similar print outs before we
leave GA.
