I was inspired to draw a picture of the Barclay School because it’s a wonderful place to learn and it’s one of the best green schools because the gardens look terrific.

This may be my new favorite place to get books!

The Book Thing is a shining beacon of the principles of reuse and community building. People bring their lightly used books here by the boxfull, and other folks who want them come and take them away. It reaffirms people's belief in the goodness of their fellow city-dwellers and saves money and paper by allowing people to enjoy someone else's old book, rather than purchase a new copy.

My mother, who just passed away at the age of 92, recorded in her memory book of her visits to Mother's Garden. She said there were "roses galore" and it was a favorite place to visit, especially on Sunday afternoons. Sounds like she would have been visiting there when it was still "new".

In 2012 the Waldorf School of Baltimore is adding an Experimental Composting Program - students collect composting materials from the school's gardens and the food waste from lunch and events. The waste is distributed between four alternative composting systems: a demonstration bio-digester; insulated tumblers; outdoor wooden composting bins; worm bins. The students are responsible for collecting the composting material. They measure waste and the by-products of composting, comparing the benefits of each approach. Hands-on learning, in the messiest sense!

There's a building right beside the metro station for parking. It's open 24 hours and it's free; no ticket needed or anything.
But I'm not sure if there are security guards there, so it's best not to leave your vehicle overnight.. Just for safety reasons.

The water is not safe for contact or drinking due to sewage contamination or run-off.
Please see the Baltimore City Health Department for more info.

This arboretum/park is just lovely. Beautiful woodland trails, historic mansion, and great family programs. Gorgeous in all seasons. Don't forget to stop by the Cylburn Nature Museum, I won't ruin the surprise. Its contents are super!

The Charm City Circulator is so convenient and not mention it's free. Even more, the NextBus app approximates arrival time at a chosen stop.

It is always a pleasant sight to see as I pass by.

thanks to the Artist and her many helpers. You've created something that thousands have enjoyed.

The Sculpture Garden is a fun place to be. It’s a peaceful place to be because the sculptures
make the garden beautiful and it is a beautiful place.

There is outdoor gym equipment scattered around the walking/biking course, making it a great place to work out!

Charmington's is a great little neighborhood coffee-shop and cafe, the perfect change of scenery for an overworked student needing a caffeinated pick-me-up. My roommates and I go there fairly frequently, armed with our laptops and books. There's free wi-fi (except for one hour during lunch), tables and chairs, and some plush couches. The coffee is great, though I'm actually partial to the chai. Check it out!
