Run Around the Inner Harbor

The weather, while cold, was beautiful here in Bmore so I decided to head out for a run around the Inner Harbor/do some window shopping. 

Here we have the Public Works Museum - something I will have to add "to do" list admire from afar as it was closed in 2010 due to budget constraints.

I did stumble upon the Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse, which is a registered National Historic Landmark, and the oldest screw-pile lighthouse in Maryland.  The lighthouse, where the keeper and his family lived, has been turned into a small museum.

In 1988, the lighthouse was removed from its place in the water and placed in the Inner Harbor.  The Steinhice family, decendents from one of the most famous light house keepers, restored it to its original beauty.  A few years later it was incorporated into the Baltimore Maritime Museum which is just yards away (but you do not have to pay admission to get in).
