Good morning, Baltimore.

I realize that it has been almost a full month since I last shared an image. I apologize, but I've been busy having lots of adventures. I'll try to share them on a more regular basis.

I traveled to Baltimore a few weeks ago to have a mini reunion and visit a friend who is now working at Johns Hopkins. We enjoyed a lovely long weekend exploring the Charm City, wandering along the water, eating ice cream, and catching up. 

This old wharf building is in the area known as Fells Point (or apparently Fells if you want to sound cool). It was a nice section of the city along the water, and we found a grassy area with benches to sit and relax beside this massive old wharf building. Our sitting and relaxing quickly turned into laying down and napping, and I wouldn't have traded that option for anything. I found this large building with the graphic words particularly intriguing. I was determined to make a mental note of the full building name so that I could remember it later, but of course I have forgotten. It has been turned into some type of mixed use business building, and it was nice to see a successful adaption of a presumably historic building.

I also loved Baltimore's diverse, abundant, and diversely painted row houses. I don't think any of my pictures quite do them justice, but I loved walking around and being constantly surrounded by the urban house type. Maybe it is because I grew up in rural/suburban areas, but I am drawn to the claustrophobic nature of city architecture.
