Next stop, Baltimore

Fells Point, Baltimore
home while training at
Johns Hopkins

 I was born in Baltimore. My parents were born in Baltimore. My grandparents lived most of their lives in Baltimore. Jessica's mother was born in Baltimore. Jessica's mother and my mother knew each other in Baltimore.

Jessica and I share 2nd cousins in Baltimore. What does that mean? She and I are related by two marriages, only one of which is our own. My great uncle married her great aunt - in Baltimore. I will not trouble you with a family tree.

So, off we went to Baltimore to visit our cousins and extended family. It was great to see all that extended family. We also saw my first cousin Jeri and her husband Michael.
