Leaders from the G-8 countries began arriving Friday evening for a round of talks that would last through today. Along with them came hundreds of journalists and other support staff. At least a few local residents were on hand to help keep some of the hungry travelers fed.

4th of July at the Shamrock Restaurant


4th of July at the Shamrock Restaurant

July 4, 2009

For the 4th of July my family and I went to the Shamrock Restaurant off Rte 15 in Thurmont, Frederick County, MD, for a delightful meal.

On an entire wall of the restaurant there was an American flag displayed. If I am not mistaken, it was identified as being 20 foot by 38 foot large.
