If you are still considering the Duck Tour...sign up in advance...they generally sell out, so walk-ups have no chance.

Why the Lucky Strike as opposed to any other restaurant/bar ?

If you do a Duck Tour, bring some locals. Locals can go free with paying guests.  Locals register on the Duck Tour website and you can pre-book the BOGO tickets on the phone (but not online). That works in any city where  there is a Duck Tour.  The DC one is great; they take you out in the river by National Airport and spend a few minutes watching the planes come in. ✈️ ✈️ ✈️ 🦆

Also, there is a very entertaining colony of rats that live in the boulder rip-rap on either side of Roaches Run (where the ramp puts you in), if you are not distracted by a plane taking off 100 feet over your head.

Alas all, tragedy has struck and I can't make it. One of my best friends unexpectedly lost his dad yesterday at age 57. In light of that, I have to forgo coming down for the Meet and Greet, but hopefully I will see some of you folks in WPB for Spring Training!

Have fun this weekend everyone!

Will do. Spent time with my buddy yesterday and he is obviously pretty beaten up. Hasn't been a good year for him.

Getting down to the wire here, folks. My calendar is wide open this weekend.

Metro has some "delays" today.    If you're on the Orange/Silver route, it will be s-l-o-w to and from N. Va.:

Loudoun) at a reasonable time.     Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeriste that might be noon to get to the Park by 5:30 or so.
