The community has a small town vibe complete with flags, lemonade stands, and top notch playgrounds.

What a lovely way to spend the day in Baltimore.There was a repeat showing on my 1560 Bluemount Road in Monkton. The buyers wanted to see the  cottage. It was my pleasure to walk the NCR trail to show this magnificent setting. The weather was perfect, sunny breezy and low 80's That middle photo below was taken from the river cottage..     And later my friends, also former clients, picked me up and treated me to some great conversation and a delicious meal at Villagio Cafe in Towson. Our waiter Amir, pictured above,  was so attentive suggesting  special dishes and checking to make sure we were enjoying this wonderful experience. Look forward to going back again and again.It was a lovely day in Baltimore!  08/22/2016

Yesterday we had a quick rainstorm blow through, and then a gorgeous rainbow appeared.Well, not just one rainbow, but TWO!I ran outside to get a picture, and was able to get a few, including this panoramic shot before the next rain clouds rolled in. Something I hadn't thought of before is, why are the colors in the second rainbow inverted? I figured it had something to do with the way that light reflected from water droplets, but I wasn't sure exactly why.I knew weather.com would have the scientific answer for me:The second and more faint rainbow is called the secondary rainbow. It occurs when refracted light does not escape the raindrop after being reflected the first time. Instead, the refracted light reflects off the raindrop's surface a second time as well, producing a secondary rai... 01/11/2016

Is that Sun in Towson?I was saying to my husband the other day that I am tired of everything being so wet. SO wet. We have had rain, rain, fog, and more rain for 10+ days. Now, mind you, I am grateful it isn't snow, but I am tired of chosing shoes and pants based on what holds up well being wet.The ground is saturated.My one dog, BTW, doesn't like getting his paws wet, so you can imagine how much fun this has been for him (and us.) "Get off the patio!"Then, yesterday, to my delight -- what is that huge, bright ball in the sky?It was fleeting -- gone too quickly -- and more rain last night, clouds and fog today again...but that moment -- I just had to capture it.I hope your holidays were wonderful, and your New Year is terrific!For any real estate needs in Towson, Maryland or around the ... 12/29/2015
