Severna Park's latest addition to its ever-blooming list of nurseries is the oh-so-popular Homestead Gardens, now located on Ritchie Highway. You may already love to escape to its showroom and nursery.

Ah, why envy them when you can join them? This week’s Great Escape is to Massage Envy. Yes, grab a group of girlfriends. Grab a partner-in-crime or just lug yourself up there. You know your tired back will love it. Take some time out in the next week and take your pick from the many massage (and facial) packages offered right here in Severna Park. If, after a winter of shoveling snow and picking up sticks all over our yards from all the wind we’ve had here in the Park, and if, like me, you don’t have Sven awaiting you at your home-spa at the end of tough day, it may be time for a mini-…
Oops, Valentines Day. Yes, it’s over. Did you miss it or just not really take the time you wanted to relax with that special someone? Make up for it with help from Patch. A phone call or two, throw a couple of things in an overnight bag, and take a quick trip over the Bay Bridge. This quiet time of the year, it’s not too late for “amour” on the Eastern Shore. At least not at the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay Golf Resort, Spa and Marina in Cambridge, MD. Check out the hotel’s “Amour Package” (with a check-in date before April 31) and enjoy a great getaway.
