A nice video of the famous 34th St Christmas Lights in Hampden, Baltimore, MD This “Miracle” is getting bigger and bigger. You probably cannot fit more than 4 buses end to end on this block, but the cars, tourists and buses keep on coming, along with plenty of limos…
Enjoy!

“Jingle Bells” Duke Ellington –
I should be adding a few pics to this collection. This short 1 block section in Hampden just brings everybody into the neighborhood including tourists busses! I think the coolest lights are the ones strung across the width of 34th street.
If you hurry and see this spectacle for yourself; find a parking spot and walk and get ready for a surprise. You’ll see some interesting things sold to keep you warm and entertained. I have found the BEST time to come is right around 5:00pm, weekdays or Sunday during a football game, light traffic and you might find a parking space. The day of Christmas or the day after are great times to view too…
Good luck!
the photos above were taken Sunday the 14th @ 5:00PM - Don’t Disturb the Neighbors, Please Park around the Corner…
I had an Artists’ Opening at the new JOJOSouth Record (vinyl) Store starting at 7:00; but Mike Wiggs and I, itching to get the night started, decided to try to catch a look at Jason Witte’s and Matt Muirhead’s work at Gallery 321 (Ben Franklin Show), which was also having an Opening Reception Saturday night and this one started an hour earlier. Upon arriving, we hooked up with couple smiling faces, Matt Muirhead and Poet Robin Gunkel. I also ran into Baltimore artist Cedar Lee and husband Kevin, I first met Cedar at the Maryland Art Place, Out of Order Show back in April. Some great art at under $100 at Gallery 321! We decided it was time to move north to JOJOSouth for my reception…
