Hey! You're close to me now. PM Sent. One more thing, if you are out and about in the city after 8pm make sure you have a gun with you. Baltimore is notorious for its crime.

lol.. i was just there 19-26 Aug.. lol.. where you staying gregg? I was at the Hyatt Regency
just a skybridge away from the inner harbor
nice town baltimore... i go every year these days (work related of course)
If you get a chance,.. check out Race Comp Engineering (aka GTWORX.com)... they're about 18 minutes away (by car) from the inner harbor area...

the guys there are awesome,... they just recently moved so stock on hand is a little light, but they hooked me up while I was there (bought stuff and saved on shipping to bring it home in my luggage.
...)
If you go, tell Myles, Dan, Mike & Kelly that tazer (burt) says ALOHA! and wassup!

oh and if you get the chance... check out "Howl at the Moon" (dueling piano bar)
great atmosphere, good service, good entertainment (go just past The Hard Rock Cafe, cross the intersection like you're going to Best Buy,.. go straight down that road..
many bar/grill type places there (McDonalds there on the right) of that courtyard area
Don't forget to check out the B&O railroad station/museum while you're there too! (yeah, like on the monopoly board ;P)
There's a Babe Ruth museum, around there as well.
and their aquarium is awesome. I've been there 2 years in a row now.
WAY better than here (sadly)
enjoy!

Kewl! outlaw23 I don't think we've met face to face before, but maybe next year, if you're still out there, I'll post up and we can meet up!
BTW, if you haven't yet, you should ask Myles for the E-Ticket ride in his RCE sprung STI,.... that car is an awesome ride. suspension setup is phenomenal for what little is done to it (comparatively to other peoples setups I've heard about anyway).
Anyway,
when I was there last (last month),.. friday nights really get jumpin' out there @ the Inner Harbor area... it was a scene to behold. the outdoor 'free' entertainment in the middle (courtyard) area (between the inner harbor malls) was awesome. Oh yeah and that place "Howl at the Moon" is located in the "Power Plant Live" area if make it out that way (again just past Hard Rock / ESPN Zone), and if you get a bit more adventurous, Little Italy is also just past the Hard Rock/ESPN Zone as well.. good eats there as well!
I've never been to Rusty Scuppers (other side of the harbor), but I've heard from my co-travellers that it's good eats (seafood) (albeit a little expensive)
Also, if you get a chance there are 2 really scenic stops. The top of the "World Trade Center Baltimore" (just past the inner harbor malls, before you get to the aquarium area) go to the top and get the 360* view of the inner harbor/Baltimore area..., and "Federal Hill" (federal hill is near Rusty Scuppers, http://www.historicfederalhill.org/www/docs/6), the 'Grassy Hill' has cannons and a terrific view of the Inner Harbor area,... And there is a pretty kewl museum nearby Federal Hill as well if I remember correctly, (http://avam.org/stuff/inmuseum.html)
and.... if you're into lighthouses,... there's a lighthouse/museum @ the end of the walk near Hard Rock/ Barnes and Noble etc... on the water-side of that 'pier', Round building, elevated by steel girders...
there's just so much to do there. part of me actually considers moving to the east coast a better idea than staying here some-days.
Hell, the drive to DC and all that is just an hour from the Inner Harbor (depending on traffic of course) if you're into seeing the WWII Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument,....etc
anyway... enjoy your trip out there Gregg...
