Quote of the Day

Peanut, "Wow, mom, now we can say we've been to all 50 states! What are we gonna do next?"

24 October 2008

Maryland - State #36



The most hilarious thing happened! The kids took off running toward the Welcome to Maryland sign and out of nowhere came this enormous dog -- a Great Dane mix. It was galloping in a happy, playful sort of way so I wasn't concerned, but when Peanut stopped dead in her tracks, it just plowed right over her. I got there just prior to hysteria and all was well.

It joined us for the pictures, followed us across the freeway to our car and then watched us drive away. We talked about dogs and why we're not getting one, the entire way to Baltimore.


Grandma said Baltimore used to be an armpit. She was stunned when we woke up and looked out our hotel room window at the beautiful city outside. I told her I’d only heard good things about Baltimore: crab festivals, music and a gorgeous harbor. In my lifetime alone, Baltimore turned its image around.
