Classic Baltimore

"A rainy afternoon in the Hampden neighborhood of Baltimore City, Md., Thursday, Nov. 4, 2010."

The return to Utah has finally been set and I cannot be more ecstatic. I am feeling better (knocks on wood) and my flight is booked (empties wallet). I have less than 10 days in Baltimore before I head back to work, which I am eager to return to.

I have been at physical therapy all week and continue all next week, too. So after my morning sessions, now that I am free to be mobile and drive (read: be normal and pain free), I have been trying to soak up as much as home as possible considering most all of my time was spent laying on a couch.

The other day I had lunch with my buddy Matt Roth and then drove around the neighborhood.

This picture speaks volumes about the city if you've never been - row houses are a icon.

I have always wanted a bright, colorful row house in Hampden. I don't know why, but maybe one day I will if I ever decide to call Maryland home again. Why? Because we all know the saying on all the park benches downtown: "Baltimore - The Greatest City in America"
