Druid Hill Sanctuary

Baltimore has some of the nicest playground courts I've ever seen in an industrial city. The Dru Hill park stays open and lit until 11:30, and it is incredibly safe. I stayed out until 10:40 or so playing O.U.T. Ended up like 1-8 or something like that.

I hadn't played playground ball in several years. Once I got kids, I realized that I could potentially shave years off my game if I just kept my knees in shape. But this is the longest layoff I've ever had in my adult life (since 1987 I've never gone more than 4 months without playing a few times a week).

Probably the thing I've got to get used to more than anything else is the dribbling. I can see why Webber would have problems with AI. Nothing worse than a cat who wants to do nothing more than dribble up and down and between, instead of either giving up the rock, or going straight to the hole.

We talk about building community across class barriers. With the exception of the barber shop, I can't think of a better place for black men off the top of my head.
