We were told that while in Annapolis, we must stop and eat at Chick & Ruth’s Delly. It’s a New York-style delicatessen and we went there for breakfast. I figured that any meal in Maryland ought to include crabs. So I ordered a crab omelette. It was delish!

The Annapolis spring boat show was going on. We didn’t buy a ticket, but we did look at the boats through the chain link fence.

Maryland’s State House is a classic, and the oldest state capital building still in use.
