Baltimore is where I have spent the largest percentage of my life. I love it!!!! This city is a wonderful contrast to it's southern neighbor. While some would call the Washington DC/North Virginia area a bit pretentious, Baltimore has a more "Blue Collar" atmosphere like Philadelphia or Boston, this is more appealling to me. But keep that to yourself, we want to keep it a bit of a secret...... The Inner Harbor has been extensively revitalized since the early 1980's, and is a great destination on a sunny day. You can walk around harborplace, the science center, the aquarium, and many other locations. |

LESullivan Tue Jun 30, 2009 14:39 UTC What are "artists" but ordinary citizens who express themselves in many creative ways? At any rate, I was in awe of the "self-taught" artists' work and the experience and certainly look forward to visiting again. | cosmo222 Thu Jan 8, 2009 19:38 UTC Did any body recently check the Hunt Valley Mall other then 2003.
