11/5/2006 Headed into Maryland; first stop, Fort McHenry. Beautiful day – sunny and clear if a bit chilly. Saw good film at the visitor center, which ended with blinds opening to reveal the flag while the SSB played. Walked around the fort, enjoying the historical exhibits and the views from the ramparts.
