Tway,

Lansdowne is a semi-bust lately. On 3/14 we were informed we were trespassing, and asked to leave. I've been back twice since then without incident, but did hear of another guy who was there this past Friday, and was removed from the park, and asked for an ID, and he was told that next time he'd be arrested...

Anyhow, it is a great place to skate. Email me when you are in town and mebbe we can skate? jaq[at]his[dot]com.


Directions:
Highway 695 (Baltimore Beltway) to Lansdowne exit. [Hollins Ferry Rd.] take Hollins Ferry road TOWARDS Lansdowne (don't go towards the brewery (Now Washington Foods), there's nothing down there but industrial wasteland), follow it to top of hill and make a right on Bero Rd. After first left (Freeway Rd.) [do not take] look for a small paved path on left, between house on corner and the next row of houses. Park and follow path to skatepark.

Jack, Thanks a bunch for the info. If it's not raining, I will hit the park in the afternoons around 4pm til dark. The forecast looks dismal but I'm taking my gear anyway. Don't have enough time to hit Vans so pray for sunshine. I will not have email service so if you want to hook up one afternoon, leave a message on my cell hell....917-364-5987.

Peace,

tway

Tway,
What days are you gonna be in Baltimore?

My schedule is goofy, but if I can't make it, I can hook you up with some others that are a little closer to the park.

Anthony,
Bertleboy and I skated hard for 2 hours yesterday. Today is out for me, as I could barely get up the stairs at work this morning. ;)

Greetings from the convention center in Balto. Got a message from Dillon who wants to hook up Thursday. I am working until 6pm every evening except Thursday. Maybe Ohm can make it up Thru. afternoon and join us. I will give JD a call later tonight. Charles street is pretty cool. Staying in the Mt. Vernon district. Love the old school buildings here. Take care.
