Hi, it was fun seeing you at Point South ( John & I have the Trek). I tuhoght you were on your way to NC and then to the East Coast. Guess I was wrong reading this. Should you make it back east this summer do give us a call and stop by for a visit to Annapolis.Take care, happy travels.While we were at the prison I got some great photos of the knitting that was done there by the inmates.

I wanted to know if inmates are separated based on their charge. Example: Are sex offender separate from a inmate charge for murder.
