| Baltimore, Harlem Week and More, August 2012 - Page YYY |
On August 4, 2012, Elton and I went to The National Great Blacks in Wax Museum in Baltimore. The information and exhibits in the museum were very informative and moving. After the museum, we visited the Inner Harbor. The Inner Harbor has changed a lot since my last visit in the 80's. |

On August 15th, it poured. This kid was practicing his "karate" moves in the rain. He made his moves and enjoyed the rain as he did so. I took the photos from my terrace. Luckily the lady crossing the 99th Street overpass had an umbrella and a raincoat! Other photos include colorful artwork on side of a truck. |
