This podcast has taken me all over the country.  We’ve even had discussions about trips you can take through Europe and other places.  But sometimes the coolest spots to hang are right under your nose.  Truthfully, one of the reasons I wanted to start doing Delightful Destinations was to learn more about some of the areas right near me that I didn’t know much about.
  
In my time living in the Baltimore area, I’ve spent most of it living in Baltimore County.  For those of you listening that don’t know the area, Baltimore County essentially wraps around Baltimore City and extends up toward Pennsylvania. It’s a massive expanse of land that offers a lot of different resources.  You have the more urban feel that’s adjacent to the city, and you have a lot of rural land filled with farms, horse training facilities and beautiful areas to experience the outdoors.  Not to mention the hundreds of miles of shoreline on the Chesapeake Bay.

I think Baltimore County is an untapped resource for a lot of folks in the area.  As I said, when you live somewhere, it’s easy to overlook what you have at your fingertips.  So, I hope today’s conversation will offer some insight into special areas of Baltimore County that people need to check out.  

Joining me today is Tom Yorke.  He’s the Chief of Tourism for Baltimore County.
