Each year I am required to do 20 hours of classroom time to maintain my CIC designation. For my non-insurance friends this is an insurance designation titled Certificated Insurance Counselor. Once you have the designation, there are number of different types of curriculum available in different places around the US. My first challenge is year is what I want to take and then where I want to go.
Several years ago we had the opportunity to visit Annapolis on a cold Sunday afternoon for lunch and a few shops. I saw a class I was interested in and low and behold it was in Annapolis on a week I had available. So it was meant to be.
My words for Annapolis are charming, historical and beautiful. There are row houses, with almost each one a designated historical building. Numerous great old buildings with wonderful architecture. The Maryland State House is located here. It is the oldest State House in the nation in continuous use. It was also undergoing some renovation, but as you can see from the photos it is a grand old building.
Let’s talk about the food. All of this area is famous for the blue crabs. Oh my goodness. I remembered these from my first visit and other visits to the Baltimore area and couldn’t wait. Well there were blue crabs as lunch the day we went to the Navel Academy and several other occasions that week for crab cakes. I am so glad we had the opportunity to spend some time in this wonderful area of our country. Another good event in our travels on The Glamour of the Road.
