Patterson Park #81



Are you over this already? It's only been featured and discussed about 12 times on this blog in the past year. d's favorite view: The Key Bridge as seen from Hampstead Hill in Patterson Park.

Patterson Park #80



The sun sets on the Pagoda and a glorious spring day.

Patterson Park Ducks #69

Patterson Park Ducks #131



I look at the series of pics I took of the ducks at sunset at the Patterson Park Boat Lake and it reminds me of how I think about C and me as we grow older together: A pair, watching another sunset, peacefully, side by side, content.

Snow-ma-geddon #125



Put out a tray of hot coffee, Bailey's, whiskey, the fixins' and some freshly baked coconut-pecan muffins for the snow shovelers on our street. They helped themselves.

They helped the block. . .since no snow plow will do our street.

I'd like to think I helped too. . .

Watched part of a piece on CBS this morning about a family that ultra-downsized. They took the six figure profit from selling their home and donated it.

That's right. They decided to live in a smaller house and donated the profits from the sale of their home to an organization that helps empower folks around the world - growing their own food, being more "efficient" in the process, starting a whole spiral of wonderful positive events for those communities. . .

Did my weak coffee in a fancy coffee press and thermos do something of that magnitude? No.

Was it a small offering of thanks for all our neighbors do to be great neighbors everyday? Yes.

Did we all have a heart-swelling sense of community? I think so.

What a powerful feeling. . .Not for you, but rather for your community.

Small steps toward a world of good acts.

It's a little blurry but I posted it because it's my most fav view: The Key Bridge from Hampstead Hill, Patterson Park. . .First light. . .This morning.

Baltimore Dogs #41



Wholly un-related to this post but it's scaring the bejeezus out of me. . .C is home this morning because we need our furnace and water heater serviced. We have an original (circa 1910) pocket door upstairs that seems to have come off the track. . .C just said to me "Where's the crowbar?" This does not instill great confidence on my part.
