We visited Elena, and her Mom and Dad, in Maryland last September. She met us at the door wearing, and pointing at, this shirt. Drum roll provided by Miss Elena.... She is going to be a BIG SISTER! Little brother Morehouse is expected March 31..
She enjoyed having us a visit and needed to show off, much to our enjoyment.

Particularly enjoyable was a trip to Havre de Grace, MD, at the mouth of the Susquehanna River. The Concord Point lighthouse is the oldest continuously operated lighthouse in Maryland since its construction in 1827.
Elena, Adam, and Jann on the boardwalk along the Chesapeake Bay.
And a glorious view of the Chesapeake Bay. This is of personal interest to me as much of my career efforts over the last 22 years has been to improve the water quality of the Upper Chesapeake Bay watersheds and ultimately, the Bay. Anecdotally, it looked good with more room for improvement. However, I believe the agricultural contribution from the New York reaches are now only a very minor source of the problem.
