We flew into Baltimore yesterday on a very interesting flight. About 1/2 hr into the flight, a man collapsed in the aisle next to Don. The young man at the window seat next to me jumps up and wants to get out - in a hurry! We are quickly unhooking headsets, belts, books, drinks, etc. but the steward won't get out of the way so Don can get out. Finally, the steward moves when he realizes the passenger next to me is a doctor. All is well, the man was seriously dehydrated and passed out from low blood pressure. The doc had him drink 1/2 gallon of sugar water and apple juice. After 45 minutes, Don moved to the man's seat and the doc and the man moved next to me. He was able to walk off the plane. Needless to say, we didn't sleep much on that flight. But, if I ever need an allergist/internist from Vancouver, I know who

Today we visited downtown Baltimore, took walks in the countryside visiting six lighthouses and one light ship; and saw the last of lovely fall colors.

We walked about a mile out to Turkey Point light through meadows, forest and along cliffs overlooking the bay.

It was almost sunset when we got to North Point State Park and walked out to see the CraigHill Range lights. The rear range light was very unusual with a square stone pillar, skeleton legs and a lovely lantern room. Check out the Bald Eagle on the rock below the tower. The front range is a great spark plug with and outhouse hanging over the rail. Cute but not environmentally sound.
