The surrounding area is crap.

Clearly, but why was it ever proposed in the first place then? They had that sign up with the picture of what it was going to look like. That would have been a crazy boon for that town.

Weird that the town sucks so much, its right on the water and really easy to get to. No traffic down that way and the roads are great. So weird....

It used to be and could be a beautiful town again. NSWC-IHD is flourishing right now. I see no reason why the town cannot clean up. More of the base employees may actually want to live closer to work. :lol:

If it has, you dont want to go anytime in the first couple of months, you KNOW it will be packed and the wait will probably be forever! The old restaurant there wasnt very big at all, so I dont see how there are more seats at the new Bucca. If I wanted Bucca, I would just drive to the one in DC, probably faster service haha

What happened? Economy downturn? IH contracts not come through?

The indian head base is doing fine. The airport runway extension is also moving forward which will serve as an emergency landing site if something happens in D.C.

The first tenant for the park which was a ejection seat company never went thru with their plan. That is what was going to kick off building it. The recession hit and things just got quiet on the site.

I wish we would get a Red Lobster in St. Mary's. I know we have local seafood restaurants, but I have yet to find one here that welcomes "outsiders". I say that only because we have tried several local seafood places, but when we would walk in just about everyone would stare at us. They would continue to stare thru out our meal. We felt like circus freaks or something. I have mentioned this to other outsider friends, and they had similar experiences. Do we look that different, I wonder? We felt so out of place.

Do you order steak at a seafood house or not know how to pick crabs?

^ This will indeed get you stares. I cringe when I see someone bash their crab with a mallot. A mallot need NEVER be used to pick Maryland blue crabs. All you need is a serrated butter knife. Ask a local how to do it correctly if you don't know how. :yay:

In addition, a lot of the local seafood places are also the local hangout. At any local hangout strangers get stares. That's true for the whole country, not just here.
