Meeting new people in Abingdon/Bel Air

Hello everyone!

I recognize that there was another very similar post in this subreddit, so I apologize for any repeating here. But I saw a lot of traction on that post and was looking to connect with others as well. I had been thinking about making a post like this for awhile, seeing there's interest has definitely made me more confident to post!

Im 30 (M) and my wife is 29. We both went to Harford County Public Schools. We both work as teachers for HCPS now as well! I am aware of some of the different options for meeting new people around Harford County like the Library and some of the gyms/fitness options, but I do feel limited to my circle of high school friends and the few college ones who live in the area. I personally am not into board/card games too much so I am not sure about going to shops that have these as an option.

I am big into fitness, I ran cross country/track in high school and workout/run most days of the week. I have tried some of the run clubs, but may need to be more consistent in going to have more success there. I am also big into hiking and try to go on the trails a bunch around Harford County. I also will usually try to make a yearly trip or two to Shennandoah, Harper's ferry, as well as other parks on the east coast.

Im a huge sports fan. My top sports are the NHL, NFL, and some MLB and NBA mixed in. I went to the University of Maryland for both my bachelors and masters so am a huge Terps fan. I would love to create a bigger community of Harford County Terps fans!

My wife and I together enjoy hiking and going to breweries. I know i talked a lot about myself so a bit about her, she is into cooking new recipes, relaxing at the pool, going on walks, murder/true crime podcasts, and mystery novels. We would previously go to trivia a lot at some of the different places throughout Harford County during the week but a lot of our teammates have moved.

Now, a huge caveat here: my wife and I are expecting our first child any day now. We may be at the hospital when you read this post. So while its unlikely that we would be able to meet with anyone in the immediate future, we will both be on leave for a bit so there is time to message. It would also be great to connect with other new parents or people with experience with young kids!

Long post, I know and apologize for. There's so much else about us that I'd love to share for anyone interested! Thank you for reading this far! I hope to hear from some of you!
