summer concerts: white marsh

During the summertime in Baltimore, there are numerous outdoor concerts, which is swell because it gives us something to do if we have no plans. We sometimes go to Belvedere Square on Friday nights for theirs, but it's usually crowded and hard to find parking.

The other night, we decided to go to the concert in White Marsh, right in the middle of an outdoor shopping mall. Higher Hands--a funk, reggae, jazz band--was playing. We liked how the space was large, had a fountain and white lights strung in the trees, had plenty of seating and attracted people from all types of backgrounds. They have concerts there every Friday and Saturday night during the summer months.

It was so hot that day--in the 90s--so it was definitely nice to get out of the city. Baltimore seems to retain heat, so going a little north of the city is definitely a relief because it's noticeably cooler.

Speaking of heat, we have no air conditioning in our house. This weekend was in the 90s. Today was 96. As I'm typing (at 10:12 pm), it's 91 degrees. I thought it was supposed to cool off at night? Anyway, we should probably get an air conditioner at some point...our poor cat has been lethargic all weekend.
