So I was sitting round thinking about my next great idea for putting my hard earned money and time in to a sound investment....
And I had an epiphany....coin collecting is a guaranteed investment with amazing, consistent returns so I will go to Baltimore to make my fortune. I wanted to drive THE BEAST....
But given the 11mpg, the tires that need replacing at 15k miles, and the love affair the Highway Patrol has with stopping me to help lighten my wallet, I decided to take THE LEAST....
Given the late timing of my decision, I decided to only pack the bare minimum necessities required for any successful numismatic road trip....
I also decided to photograph and present pictures of all of the cherished cultural institutions I woud pass on my trip through West Virginia, southern Pennsylvania and eastern Maryland.....
After that part of the trip, I did stop while passing through to see my old friend Fred....
I got to meet his neighbor Barney and play with his dog for a while, nut i was time to get back on the road.
I had to stop for food and gas....
And then decided to get gasoline too....
I wanted to stay in a place I had last seen in the mid 1970's for nostalgia's sake....
But apparently it had since closed, so I decided to spare no expense and stay in a room at the finest establishment money could rent, because I am worth it....
Upon exiting the elevator thirsting for a nice Macallan rocks and some ice cold Coke after a grueing drive, I reviewed this helpful sign....
I imagine you can guess which floor I am on....
I brought some coins to sell....
As well as some coins to attempt crossing over, and I might pick up a newp if things work out. I will regale you with additional cerebral observations tomorrow after the show. Right now, I am late drinking my dinner.

We need to be able to leave a Like and an LOL!
I hope you had a successful trip, but based on your choice of foods, when you get home, may I kindly suggest you get your cholesterol and blood pressure checked.

Don't forget to get your free Dorito Taco at Taco Bell, 11/1/18, 2-6pm local time thanks to the stolen base by them Sox the other day, Go Blue
Is the OP "Punxatawney''s cousin?
Just to funny.
Some antacid tablets may be of good use. I agree that's a lot of cheese for coin dipping!
BTW nice beast! My current beast is a C63 coupe. I completely understand about tire wear!
Smart move going zero sugar on ur Coke. Wouldnt wanna ruin that diet.
Great post

Great report so far. Looking forward to more reports.
Well that is a unique report....
The Macallan's is a nice touch... I hope you do not desecrate such a fine libation with Coke... I look forward to your future adventures....Cheers, RickO
@CoinStar I agree a like & LOL would be nice, perhaps that would of been better then the disagree button remove. Could of just renamed the button and avoid all the drama. Maybe that is why so many end up with those creepy smiley face icons with fake trolling threads.
