Baltimore and Shenandoah National Park

In May, Curtis and I went to visit my brother Jack and his girlfriend Kristin down in Baltimore. Their place is in Fell's Point which is a cute neighborhood right on the harbor. It's experiencing quite a bit of growth, with all of the old factories and warehouse spaces being turned into housing.

On Tuesday we went to Shenandoah National Park! We started at the North entrance of the park and drove about a quarter of the way down the Skyline Drive.



We stopped at a few scenic overlooks and took a short hike before we turned around and headed back to Baltimore. Shenandoah is BEAUTIFUL. I especially recommend it if you like driving and enjoy hiking.



Jack and Kristin recently got a plot at the Patterson Park Community Garden. It's a beautiful place!





After visiting the plot, Jack took us on a walk through Patterson Park and the Butchers Hill neighborhood of Baltimore.





During our stay in Charm City we ate some great food. Dinners at Fork & Wrench and Peter's Inn and breakfast on our departing day at Milk & Honey (below).



It was a VERY nice visit and a great trip. Maybe next time we go we'll see a few museums - this time you couldn't pay us to stay indoors, the weather was perfect.

As a bonus, the day we went to Shenandoah was our 2nd wedding anniversary! It was a good one! :)
