- RAVENS ROOST #44 ROAD TRIP-2014. We will be staying at the Guy Harvey Outpost at the Tradewinds Resort in St. Pete Beach, FL (see link below for their website). The trip will consist of a 3-night stay at the hotel (courtyard view 1-bedroom suite rooms), a game day ticket in the lower corner of the end zone (section 202-see link for seating chart below), bus transportation to and from the stadium, a social and a road trip tee shirt & koozie.
The cost will be $425 a person-double occupancy-single occupancy will be $685 for a 3-night stay. The rate per night for the hotel is $178.08 incl. tax. This nightly rate includes their “Resort Amenity Package” (see link below). The hotel will honor this rate 3 days before the event (10/12) and 3 days after the event, based on availability, for those of you who want to stay for more then 3 days. Note: Most of the rooms are doubles (hey push them together if need be) with a few king rooms available. I currently have 25 rooms reserved of which 15 have been spoken for.
The trip as of this morning is open to both Roost members and non-Roost members. Due to having to purchase the game day tickets, and reserve the rooms in a short order of time, I will need everyone’s deposit (non-refundable) by this Friday-May 16th. Please make your checks out to Ravens Roost #44 in the amount of $150 (per person) and mail them to me, Mike Grimes, at 108 South Ocean Drive, Ocean City, MD 21842 or drop your check off at my residence. You can reach me on my cell at 410.251.6821 to make an appointment to see me.
This is a package deal. The only exception would be excluding the game-day ticket for those who don’t want to go to the game. Please contact me with any questions at montegomike@verizon.net or my cell at 410.251.6821. http://www.tradewindsresort.com/

Funny Poop
- How can you tell there's a blind man in a nudist colony? It isn't hard!
- The room was full of pregnant women and their partners, and the Lamaze class was in full swing. The instructor was teaching the women how to breathe properly, along with informing the men how to give the necessary assurances at this stage of the plan. The teacher then announced, "Ladies, exercise is GOOD for you! Walking is especially beneficial. And, Gentlemen, it wouldn't hurt YOU to take the time to go walking with your partner!" The room really got quiet. Finally, a man in the middle of the group raised his hand. "Yes?" replied the teacher. "Is it all right if she carries a golf bag while we walk?"
Etcetera
- Got poop? Let me know! I’m going to try to get this out every Wednesday so if you get it to me by Tuesday I’ll try to include it. Your input is appreciated.

Baltimore Ravens, let’s go
And put that ball across the line
So fly with talons spread wide
Go in and strike with Ravens pride
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Ravens dark wings take flight
Dive in and show them your might
For Baltimore and Maryland
You will fly on to victory
