WD, Sir, thanks for the information about the Mayor, as that is a whole other can o worms!
Badger, thanks for the well wish...will be staying out of the "hoods" for sure. Lol
GSMom, have researched some of the places you mentioned, and they sound like great places for travelers to visit. Am very excited to tour some of the culinary legends of the area, amd see if they actually stack up to their reps!
