Baltimore…we love you

by Cindy on October 27, 2009

Some of you might be stopping by and thinking, is she EVER going to post something new??  I’ve had my Easy Wire Blog Give Away post up since last week…and I’ll be drawing a name after midnight tonight!  ….If you are a first-time visitor here (welcome!) there’s still time to enter the give away…just scroll down to the previous post.

On Sunday we went to Baltimore again, and this time for an awards ceremony for my oldest son.  The boys got spiffed up in their suits and we enjoyed a wonderful morning on the campus of Johns Hopkins.  Sure brought back memories from my college days.  Back in the day, I received a minor in German here and it is my brother’s Alma Mater.

We're proud of you, Big G!

Afterward we drove right up the street to my Alma mater and took the kids on a little tour of the College of Notre Dame.  I  missed this place.   We stopped by the  faculty mailboxes to see who was still there.   I only found 1 out of 5 of my psychology professors names.  I left her a little surprise note!

We drove to the Towson area afterward for lunch, and would you believe I saw a childhood friend crossing the street!  We had to pull over… I cannot believe what a small world it can be…even in a place as big as Baltimore! 🙂  Oh, I also made a point to stop in to the nearest grocery store and pick up some of those yummy Berger cookies….I was in luck and they had them!!  I mentioned them back here….and one of my blog friends will be receiving a package of them in the mail! 🙂

Thank you all for stopping by…and I wanted to also say how THRILLED I am with the incredible response to the blog give away.  It won’t be long ’til the winners are revealed!
