The Place to Stop Before You Go

This past week after a meeting at the Greater Baltimore Board of Realtors(GBBR) I planned on meeting a fellow broker for lunch.  We decided to meet just minutes from GBBR at the The Shops at Kenilworth in Towson, MD. There you can find The Passenger Stop  which owned by a special couple, Phyllis and Mort Blankman.

I first met Phyllis at A NAWBO meeting (National Association of Women Business Owners) and later sold her home and helped her purchase a condo. Take a look at page 151-153 in my book Real Estate the Rome Way and you can see the"thank you" note written by Phyllis and Mort.

 These days, I love to stop in and see what she and Mort have in their travel store. This place has everything for your travel needs…yes, everything except for the tickets!

You could easily plan your way around the world and back again with their wide variety of maps and guidebooks, and handsome luggage like the brown, my favorite color, set by Briggs & Riley. Closer to home, that auto litterbag would be perfect for Realtors® traveling to and fro in their daily routines!

There is a handy Travel Checklist that will remind you of all the things you need to think of – like electric adapter plugs – along with helpful hints. Here's just one example:

 "Photocopy passport, vital statistics, credit cards, and drivers license. Put a copy in your luggage and one in traveling companion’s bag." Sure makes sense to me.

Next time you get ready for a trip, shop at The Passenger Stop and be off to a good start.

 This is the place to stop before you go!

Margaret ~ Have you ever seen Ace Of Cakes? I think if I were in Baltimore that bakery would be a must see.

Great concept...and such a timesaver to have everything in one place....maybe they should franchise it !

Margaret ~  This is such a nice thing for you to do for your friends.  What a neat little shop.  I bet you had your red shoes on when they were your clients.   :O)   Now I have to go look at those pages again too.
