Just so you know, all bars in Maryland are non-smoking. Are you from PA?

Do you have any suggestions on spots that would be good for walking the waterline?

Don't waste your time off Gibson Island. No oyster spat have been seen above the Bay Bridge in over a decade.
Maryland's history with oystering had legislators (who make most of the oyster rules) always favoring watermen over recreational harvesters. It's been that way for many generations. Many books out there if you want to learn more about how it came to be that way. It was so bad that it wasn't legal to start a new lease to grow your own oysters until 2009.

That’s what I was thinking. I don’t see any info about it not being encouraged, why is that? I’ve been reading up quite a bit and while there’s definitely a lot of regulations it didn’t come across as not encouraged. I’m currently looking at a historical oyster bar off of Gibson island that seems to be a possibility.

Unless you are a diver or you have hand tongs you are stuck walking shorelines on the lower eastern shore. Dorchester and Wicomico County. It's not a practice encouraged by the state so make sure to read the regulations on the DNR web page.

Thanks! I’ll look into the storage units. I’m not sure about the friends because everyone I know has a car, but I hope that could work too

That's in the water, not the air.
Rookie mistake.

Any place that’s not white trash or blue collar could care less in general. Those two can be very homophonic around here.

The pacific decadal oscillation is the 20 year cycle of the air above the pasific ocean near the equator off the west coast of mexico, this cycle is split into 2 categories: El Niño (when the air above the pasific ocean is warmer) and La Niña (the colder counterpart).
Focusing on the impact this has on the continental US: El nino, the warm one, pushes the pacific jet stream to the south, which results in significantly more rain in the southern US and dryer and warmer conditions in the northern US.
La nina, the cold one, pushes the pacific jet stream up north, which results in dryer conditions in the southern US and colder and more rainy conditions in the north.
So fun thing about this cycle: it's effect on the American north east are less cut and dry and even more so, maryland is basically on the boarder of what's considered north and south when it comes to climate in the US.
That being said, generally speaking, there is a pattern that can be established where El nino years mean maryland gets colder winters with more rain and snow, while la nina years mean more tame winters for maryland with warmer temperatures and dry conditions. In other words we're more like the south than the north for this cycle.
We have been in a la nina state since around 2018, and I belive that's why we haven't been getting any snow. The winters have also been warmer these past couple of years.
Don't take what I say as absolute fact btw, that's just good internet advice in general though.

This just made me think of the infamous 'Blizzard of '96' -- took a week for the city's plows to hit our street. We had to dig it out ourselves.

So there's not a single person there who worked their way up to an engineer title from a surveyor or something? Just arguing for arguments sake.

I bought my house and closed on it three weeks before that snow storm hit. It was the one and only time I’ve lost power in the seven years I’ve lived in this part of Baltimore

Reply to PCP recommendations in Towson area? by paperbackbrews
I like Megan Wood at GBMC Texas Station. She is a CRNP but I see her as a PCP. She is very kind and takes the time to listen.
