relocation package: Resources for Davidsonville Newbies
- 08/08/08 04:14 AM
'Just bought a Davidsonville home, settlement is over, the moving truck has come and gone... now what?
Unpacking and putting things away seems like a good place to start, but procrastination rears its ugly head... So you're off to the store - 'Gotta find some new ways to organize your clutter. If you don't do it when you move in and put things away, when will you?
If only there were a Container Store nearby, but there's not. Target, Home Goods, K-Mart and Walmart are probably your best bet unless you're military and have access to shopping at Fort George G. Meade, the USNA, or Andrews AFB.

relocation package: Crofton Library - Heart of the Community (Localism Featured)

Included in Your Online Relocation Package for Anne Arundel County, Maryland - Home of Fort George G. Meade, NSA, Northrop Grumman, BWI, and the U.S. Naval Academy.
Crofton Library is arguably the heart of the community.
Located at the intersection of Reidel Road and Aberdeen Drive, it is easily accessible to every neighborhood in Crofton, and walkable for many of them.
I remember a time when libraries were little more than a musty-smelling old building with poorly lit rows of books that could be borrowed for two weeks. Geeky-types sat at large tables, surrounded by piles of books - doing … (9 comments)

- 07/08/08 05:45 AM
Kauffman's Tavern, in Gambrills Maryland, is not located on the water, where you might expect to find one of Anne Arundel County's premier crab houses. In fact, it's not even a crab house. But boy.... do they have good steamed crabs! You can get them any day for dining in or carry-out (in season, while supplies last) - yet Sundays are special because that's the day they offer "all-you-can-eat" crabs from 3-9 p.m. for just $28 per person. Not only that, they have live music on the patio from 2-6 p.m.
Kauffman's is located on Gambrills Road, off Route 175 between Fort Meade and Route 3. It's kind of … (37 comments)

Included in Your Online Relocation Package for Anne Arundel County, Maryland - Home of Fort George G. Meade, NSA, Northrop Grumman, BWI, and the U.S. Naval Academy.
There's more to moving than packing up your belongings and transporting them in a truck to your destination location. Getting your life back to normal means hooking up your electronic equipment to make it functional again.
Moving your piano is nothing, compared to this challenge. After all, the movers perform all the heavy lifting, while the electronics hook-up is in your own hands and at the mercy of your time availability.
There's no way around … (16 comments)

Relocating to a new area always presents many other challenges besides "just" finding a home. I understand that, after a few of my own PCS moves - often handling everything while my husband was deployed and my family was on the opposite coast.
I relied upon that experience while creating this Relocation Package for you, trying to address issues such as commuting, schools, shopping, communities, and things to do for recreation. There are so many other unknowns you … (7 comments)

PEACE OF MIND - the #1 Reason for you to get a home inspection!
Whether you'r relocating to Anne Arundel County from another part of the country, or just moving across the street, a home inspection is always a good idea for any homebuyer.

There's more to relocating than finding a home. If you're anything like me, finding nearby shopping is pretty high on the priority list, once your boxes are unpacked. Even though you moved all your household goods here, there will probably be things you need - perhaps new window coverings, shelving, closet organizers, and maybe you'll even make an unplanned purchase or two...
You'll be happy to know the two largest shopping malls in Maryland are located right here in Anne Arundel County! If … (3 comments)

As we moved to different parts of the country, compliments of the U.S. Navy, I was very excited to experience life in a new places. But I really missed winter, as I knew it, and I was glad to settle back in Maryland when Larry was stationed at the U.S. Naval Academy as an instructor. I guess each of us grows accustomed to the seasons, whereever we live, and relocation may require some adjustments to our expectations and maybe even our wardrobe.

Did I tell you about the time when movers packed wet coffee grounds from my sink?
Or another time when my un-emptied kitchen trash can got packed? (Week-old banana peels are not a pleasant surprise when you're unpacking.) When we relocated back to Maryland from Charleston, South Carolina, my boys' friends came over for a last good-bye - only to find their bikes loaded on the van when they went outside.
Then there was a … (14 comments)

First a little golf trivia...
As a golfer, I'm sure you're familiar with the customary RED TEES for women, WHITE TEES for men, and BLUE TEES for Championship play. This system was actually the brainchild of Frank Emmet, Director of the District of Columbia Golf Association's junior activities in the 1920's and a member of the USGA Junior Championship Committee. But Frank Emmet's legacy reached beyond this to many generations of golfers in this area with his mantra On the links, … (8 comments)
