Good morning, Nikos!

A little bleary eyed this morning. Have to send the tux to the cleaners—celebrated a little too much last night and into this morning.

Berlin, MD is about an hour from me—have been there a few times.

It is a very picturesque town. Only about 4500 people. Has a quaint downtown of mostly brick building—lots of antique stores—inland from Ocean City, MD.

It has been the scene of two movies:

For Runaway Bride (1999), starring Richard Gere and Julia Roberts, Berlin’s Main Street and some of the outlying areas were altered to become the fictitious town of Hale, Maryland.

For Tuck Everlasting (2002), starring Sissy Spacek, Ben Kingsley, and William Hurt, alteration of the streets and sidewalks transformed Berlin into the fictitious town of Treegap.

Berlin was the home of the great racehorse Man o’ War (1917- 1947) He trained at Glen Riddle Farm. Owned by Samuel D. Riddle.
