Maryland is a very strange state with lots of Southern and Northern ties. If you go down to Southern Maryland or the Eastern Shore, the accents are closer to rural to suburban VA. In Northern MD, they are a mixture of black AAVE DC, Italian, and southern PA, depending of the area. But that’s what makes the Mid-Atlantic so unique.

Or stay at home, watch the Twliight Zone marathon and order takeout. Go to bed before midnight. Been my NYE routine for 25 years. 😄 NYE is also probably the most dangerous night to be on the road due to all of the idiots who drive drunk or recklessly. Too cold to go anywhere anyway.

Thanks for sharing! Honestly, a lot of the negative press about Baltimore centers on the idea that most in the city are black, poor and therefore violent. Of course, that is not true and it doesn’t represent how many people live and love the city. The media does a lot of fearmongering about Baltimore and while the city does have a lot of crime, that’s the case with every major city.
