You'll love it - unlike Florida with its bland weather, Maryland's will keep you on your toes. Lots of outdoor stuff to do and places to see - including nearby D.C. People are , at least were, open-minded and friendly. Two things - avoid the highways if you can. 270 was a bitch back when I left and is probably worse now and try with every breath to avoid its mother- The Beltway . Nearly lost my life a few times on that highway and I was there when it was being built. Ironically once almost plowing into an ice-cream truck.
