I arrived in beautiful Baltimore today around 2:00 PM EST. Would have gotten here sooner if it were not for the dying car battery issue I had this morning, which landed me at a Walmart near Richmond, VA. I looked pretty funny in the Walmart parking lot with my little flowered outfit and bright pink dish gloves, cursing at the battery mountings with my crescent wrench. I successfully changed the battery all by myself!
Once I arrived, I got to tour the school where Carly teaches Spanish — St. Paul’s School for Girls. Then we ate dinner and she showed me where to take the bus to JHU tomorrow. I talked to the Director of Admissions at the Bloomberg School on the phone today and she says I can come in tomorrow morning and fill out the paperwork. So far, looks like everything will work out.

So glad your safe and in Balto with my little girl. You Clinton, and your father have been in my thoughts and prayers. I hope to visit you and Carly soon.

Hi, I’m a friend of Clinton (wife of Jared), and I’m also originally from Baltimore. My mom lives about 3 blocks away from the JHU campus and she and I have been to all the cool places nearby, so either of us can give you some recommendations for eating, shopping, whatever you need. Should you decide that Baltimore is a good wedding spot, my mom also knows a number of people who have cool old houses, art galleries, and that kind of thing. One option would be the Engineer’s Club: http://www.esb.org/pages/mansion.htm#
I’m in NH now, but she’s still in Baltimore and would be happy to help you out in any way. Feel free to email me and I’ll give you my rundown of my home town.
