Good morning message from Eastern Shore Undercover - 8/24/2026
 

Good morning, folks. It is Monday, August 24, 2026, and we are up early and ready to get this day started.

Today marks the anniversary of Maryland becoming the 7th state to join the Union and ratify the US Constitution.

It's also National Waffle Day and probably 10 other topics, so take your pick. Isn't it crazy how they now have a dozen different topics for National Day's? We used to post them daily but it got to be too much to keep up with but since we live in Maryland, might as well mention it this morning.

I'm going to try to talk the wifey into making us some of her home milled flour waffles, maybe with a side of bacon or sausage, so figured I'd mention that as well. 

Not much else going on today, so we're turning everything on and getting to work. Folks, I hope you all have a wonderful day and a great start to your week.
