When Company Comes to VisitDo you have a favorite place you like to go to when friends come to visit?  I have a small Airbnb business and from time to time my guests become friends and sometimes even clients.  This week I have a guest from Canada that is starting a new job here.  Saturday we toured Baltimore looking for long-term temporary housing for him.  It came lunch time and we needed to eat, and we were on our way to Charles Village and Remington so one of my favorite places to go that screams Baltimore is The Paper Moon Diner located on 29th.  It's a very cool place with lots to look at, the service is usually really good and Saturday was no different and the food locally sourced and made from scratch is also always good.  I  have never been disappointed.  Where's your favorite l... 06/27/2022

Mark and Endre are hosting this month's challenge and ask us to show our Stars and Stripes flying in honor of three patriotic holidays Memorial Day, Flag Day, and The Fourth of July. There are Flags Flags Everywhere... look around, and these photos were all taken on a wonderfully busy Friday. Living in Baltimore, I thought visiting Fort McHenry was my best bet for any flag photos needed. But thenI saw my first 'sort of' flag when I was in Canton for a closing. It was on the railing.   From the nearby Flag House, I took this one from my car.   While driving on I-83, I pulled over to grab this shot of Ole Glory flying above the Maryland Flag.  And on my way through the Mt. Washington neighborhood, I saw this one on a stone home.  I saw this one flying over The Admiral's Cup on Friday even... 06/06/2022

Marching Ravens Auditions for 2022For those of you who don't know, I was a marching band, Mom.  My youngest son, Liam was in the Towson High School Marching Band for 4 years and loved it.  So, when my friend, Sherry, called yesterday to tell me that the Baltimore Ravens were holding tryouts for this year's season, I was quick to look up the link and send it to Liam.  For full details, you will want to check out the Ravens' website.  Auditions are being held on March 26 and you need to be fully vaccinated to audition and participate.  Musician applications need to be in by March 23rd so you need to get that done fairly quickly.  This is a great opportunity for musicians to participate in a marching band after high school and if you are Ravens fans too what a bonus that is!!    03/16/2022
