Maryland is known as “America in Miniature” because of its great variations in topography and culture. This makes it a perfect east coat travel destination for those who would like to experience a little bit of everything. From amusement parks, to beaches, to mountains and historical sites, there is plenty to see and do. Each region of Maryland provides its own unique and fun activities to do. If you're headed for some fun in the sun in Ocean City on its eastern coast, be sure not to miss the Ocean City Beach, the Boardwalk, or Trimper's Rides and Amusement Park for an all-ages fun experience. Central Maryland is home to a Six Flags theme park, the Annapolis Golf Club, and countless hubs of art and culture such as the African Art Museum and Annapolis Opera, Inc. Heading to western Maryland? It is perfect for lovers of nature and the outdoors, with the Washington Monument State Park, Wisp Resort ski slopes, and the spectacular Muddy Creek Falls.

Once known as The King William’s School, it was founded in the Maryland colony’s “free” school in 1696, making ith the 3rd oldest college in the US. It became St. John’s College in 1794. Interstingly, four of St. John's founders were signers of the Declaration of Independence. The college's grounds are beautiful and beyond description. You just need to walk along College Ave. and King George Street to Appreciate them. Its focus is the liberal arts. Students, as I understand it, study classic texts and debate them. Interstingly, College's faculty members are termed “tutors,” not professors or teachers. Maybe, that is because they lead classes, rather than teach. Apparently, the tutors serve as what the school considers content experts, who "guide discussion and act as model learners." The College's buildings and architecture are breathtaking. The main library is filled with classic European texts.

Why not walk in the steps of great men from the past and present and visit one of America's best universities and a continuing source of pride to Marylanders. While there, visit its Peabody Institute that rivals, some say, NY and other states known for graduating music prodigies.

A model railroad club modeling primarily in HO and O scales, currently rebuilding at its new location. Also see static model displays, railroad heralds (from railroads that crisscrossed the US in the 1950s), railroad artifacts (steam locomotive bell, and whistle), manufacturer publicity photos, and historic club photos. Donations greatly appreciated. Members willing to discuss all aspects of the hobby and real railroads as well.
