It's all the fault of these guys. <G> Baltimore is the wrong direction. "Go West, young man," Indiana newspaper writer John Soule's 1851 advice, would be popularized by Horace Greeley and serve as the mantra for nineteenth Century American migration. Continuing the trend of westward expansion to the Appalachian Mountains in the eighteenth century, United States citizens as well as immigrants would migrate all the way to the Pacific Ocean by the mid-nineteenth century. From why people decided to move to how they would transform the places that they settled, western movement was a landmark phenomenon in American history.

There is a distinct difference in how the 3 acre mansions of B'more are decorated versus a similar place in Atherton, CA. Oh yeah, we don't do trendy, hon. Maybe downtown lofts might be all stainless and exotic hardwoods with low voltage lighting, but not in Parkton, hon. When people in Maryland ask me what it's like to live in Parkton I say, "Its the kind of place where you can still build an addition on your trailer." This used to be my across the street neighbor: 74.93.213.76 But they bulldozed it a few years ago to put this POS up and still can't sell it (make sure you click on the virtual tour, it cracks me up): homes.longandfoster.com It started out at $799K a year and a half ago. I was really sorry to see the little old white house go because I used to tell people to look for my driveway right after the West Virginia style house with all the wrecked cars in the yard. Plus, our mailboxes never got vandalized because they looked like the kind of people who had shotguns and weren't afraid to use 'em.
