Despite his fatigue and pain, Ernie insisted we take our daily excursion. We visited the B&O Railroad Museum (fascinating) and bought a combo ticket so that we could ride the train about 2 miles to tour the Mt Clare House.

Mt Clare Museum House |
The original property for the house was purchased by Charles Carroll, an Irish immigrant. His son, a barrister and one of the authors of the Charters of Rights for Maryland, built Mt Clare in 1756, naming it after his sister and his grandmother. About 3/4 of the contents of the house are original. It was well worth a visit.
I think our excursions are a great distraction but my challenge is obviously to get him enough to eat so that he maintains the strength to enjoy them as well as to conquer the treatments.
