BALTIMORE, MD	WASHINGTON, D.C.	WASHINGTON, D.C.
Our next stop was Baltimore. Here is the a city scene with Shot Tower in the background.	Add your content here After three weeks on the road and staying in hotels we are invited to stay in a home. The house of Kay Oberly and her husband, Haynes Johnson. Kay is Bill's counsin. A beautiful D.C. mansion where we stayed for 6 days! Lucky, lucky us! September 27-October 2, 2005	Add your content here Liam and Dillon (with new hair cuts) at the World War II Memorial with the Lincoln Memorial in the background. October 5, 2005 - Washington, D.C.
Baltimore used a lot of brick in its archetectue. This is a fairly new apartment building. Brick.	Our gracious hosts in Washington, D.C., cousin Kay Oberly and Haynes Johnson. Picture is taken in their backyard. See pictures below for more treasures in their backyard.	Momma and her boys send a message to "W" -- hopefully he can understand the hand signal.

This is the rather large brick building that houses, ESPN Zone on the right, Barnes & Noble in the middle and Hard Rock Cafe on the right. We only went in Barns & Noble.	Family photo. All named Oberly. Kay is the daughter of Grandpa Bill Oberly's brother.	Add your content here
In the middle of the round about that takes one downtown from the east side of town in this beautiful sculpture and fountain, a memorial to World War II.	"The boys". Sunny days, comfortable backyard, warm friendship, and Washington D.C. in the backyard. It truly doesn't get any better then this.	Add your content here
Baltimore was our portal to sporting events. Our first was a S.F. Giants vs. Washington Nationals game at RFK Stadium in D.C.	The other treasure in Kay and Haynes' backyard. The temperature when we arrived was in the 80s. The temperature in the pool was in the 70s. Now it doesn't get any better.	Add your content here
Happy Giants fans. Didn't they know the Giants lost.	"Its so good it makes me want to sing."	Add your content here
The night after the Giants game we went to Camden Yards in Baltimore to watch the Boston Red Sox play the Baltimore Orioles.	"Yeah!!!!"	Add your content here
Our seats were not quite as good as at the Giants game. In fact, the usher said, "Hum, row LL, that's three rows...from the top." Good thing we brought binoculars.	This picture requires no description and will be left to your imagination.	Add your content here
Even thought the Red Sox won an exciting game with Manny hitting in four runs, Dillon turned his attention to befriending neighbors in the stands.	The Oberly boys had a great time in the pool, including swan dives off of Dad.	Add your content here
Here are a couple of Dillon's friends from Boston. He won't share telephone numbers with anyone else in the family.	Add your content here	Add your content here
Our next sports stop was Dover, Delaware for the Dover 400, the NASCAR race in Delaware. The most amazing thing about this event was the number of people there. Somewhere between 150,000 and 200,000 people.	Add your content here	Add your content here
And the winner of the race at Dover's Monster Mile was Jimmy Johnson, pictured here going about 180 mph on the back stretch in front of our seats. Kudos to Vicky for being able to take a picture of a car going that fast.	Add your content here	Add your content here

Back in Baltimore we visited that most Star Spangled of historical sites, Fort McHenry, and sure enough, the flag was still there.	Add your content here	Add your content here
Here is the view the defenders of our young country had of the British fleet back during that battle.	Add your content here	Add your content here
And speaking of the devils, here they are, the defenders of our country. Whether historical or in the future we leave the answer to that question up to you.	Add your content here	Add your content here
Our soldiers were always ready, even if aheld of their supply lines. With soldiers like these no wonder we beat the British at Fort McHenry.	Add your content here	Add your content here
