Weekend Edition Learn a bit of history at the Harriet Tubman Museum and Educational Center. www.harriettubman.com Go green at the Pickering Creek Audubon Center. www.pickeringcreek.org Take a walk through history with Tour Historic Cambridge. www.cambridgemd.org/historictours.html as St. Michaels and historic Annapolis. “During the next few months, we plan on spending more time in both Cambridge and Easton, which is where our housing is located. That city has restored much of the downtown district and it now boasts an outdoor European-style market. There are also a lot of antiquing opportunities throughout the area, and we already have tickets to a live performance at the local theater.” Not to mention, Deb is a bit of a foodie. “The seafood here is amazing. Before, we were here from August through November, and we were treated to fresh crabs, oysters, and clams. Anytime I can get Maryland blue crab, I am happy.” Even if the seafood isn’t quite as plentiful during the winter months, Deb looks forward to tasting the regional cuisine. “I am always looking for locations with good food.” It is not just the sights and tastes that have endeared Cambridge to the Stewarts, so have the people. “The residents are so down to earth and friendly,” says Deb. “This is one of those towns where everyone reaches out to everyone else and it is easy to integrate yourself into the community if you wish.” Circle Career Card No. 613 An open road ahead Because she is still relatively new into her current assignment, Deb has not yet decided what is next for her and Stew. “There are a lot of options out there, and as a traveler, you have to keep an open mind because you might really end up enjoying a town you may never have considered otherwise.” One such opportunity might be to extend her current assignment, which is scheduled to end in April. “I did not extend the first contract because we had already accepted an assignment in the U.S. Virgin Islands, but I would seriously think about adding onto this contract,” she states. “Still, there are so many other places we have not experienced. I would love to drive up to Chicago and head west toward Wyoming. That seems like the perfect adventure to me.” HT Anne Baye Ericksen is a freelance writer based in Simi Valley, California.
