Dad's ship!
Circa 1959-61. Gonna tour it tomorrow!
Hope we at least get to peek at the galley.
On the front of the boat you can see the big guns, test firing of which made him flinch at big fireworks for the rest of his life.
I kinda like Baltimore, but it is, like many rust belt cities, a city of contrasts, even extremes: decaying urban core and long blocks of abandoned buildings, then you wander in to corporate capitalist tourist hell (think Hard Rock and Bubba Gump Shrimp Company.) I prefer the blocks of abandoned buildings.
