Some great couple of days in Maryland after this first week:

flying in
getting our usual dose of food, coffee, groceries run, …
exploring Annapolis
(re-)discovering Baltimore, including the American Sublime & House of Melo exhibitions.

Three framed sports jerseys, one red, one blue, and one purple, are displayed on a wall above a door next to a sign for Corona Extra. A busy small-town street features American flags, historic-style buildings, and a bright, partly cloudy sky.

Deeply saddened to hear about the passing of D’Angelo!

There’s rarely been such an influential artist who’s been as influential as he was reclusive especially with 2 albums 18 years apart. (Maybe Jeff Buckley comes to mind…)
