If you’re feeling in the holiday spirit (or need to get into it), tonight is the 37th annual Monumental Occasion in Mount Vernon. Good times kick off at 7:00 PM, but show up early for great food from local restaurants, strolling entertainment, and drinks at the neighborhood bars (yeah, I know it’s a Thursday, but it’s the holidays, man!).

More info here. Come on out, y’all!

Summer Special Rate at Rocky Gap Resort:

I stayed there once, courtesy of the Maryland Department of Business and Economic, and I had a great time. There’s a golf course, trails to walk, and a big pond.

The lobby has an awesome stone fireplace and a really cute receptionist. ;-)

Many of the rooms overlook the pond with a beautiful view of the Appalachian Mountains set just behind. (Virtual tours here.)

Encounter: ADAM STAB:

“The graffiti experience … grows in all these young artists who may have gotten their feet wet as spray painters. Some of the galleries have embraced these guys. I know people I’ve had the chance to write with and paint with who are in the Hirschhorn. But they’re still out in the freight yards and that’s the beauty of the thing.”
