Hi! Never posted one of these before so I’m hoping I’m doing this right and I realize it’s a slim chance but I’m hoping the right person sees this. My roommate and I were taking photos of the northern lights at one of the pull off/parking areas at Soldiers Delight in Reisterstown/Owings Mills on November 11th, 2025 and I’m looking for a person we crossed paths with as a possible missed connection.

We were in a red car, and I was in a Beetlejuice hoodie complaining about my hands being cold. There was a family there and then the person pulled into the lot in a white Prius, which I remember because the headlights were off which was very polite imo. They got out, male, wearing a coat that I believe had like faux fur around the hood lining and skinny jeans and kept trying to balance their phone on the roof of their car for photos. I remember thinking they were very kind because they showed the little kid that was there the photos they were taking. When my friend and I were making WTNV jokes about the glow cloud, they laughed which makes me think they are in our age bracket too. Then they left very quickly before we could decide to try to talk with them.

Anyway, if this is you, I know it’s been what, like 6 months, but we still think about crossing paths with you; I hope you’re doing well, and got some good pics that night, and we would be up to swap northern light photos sometime!

Dose anyone have a good recommendation for a structural engineer in the Baltimore country area?

I am trying to create a resource sheet for people wanting to build community and make friends in and around Baltimore County. I was hoping some of you on here could share experiences or places that you have built community and made friends. This can be your fav yoga studio shoutouts, pottery studios/creator spaces, intramural leagues, walking/run clubs, volunteer groups. I would like to make this list and divide it by free vs. paid hobbies/community-building. Anything that has helped you find a little slice of community and belonging! TIA

Hi I'm thinking of moving to Parkton MD in Baltimore County. I'm 35M South Asian (Punjabi) and my wife is 29F White. We have a 7 month old who, minus the name, will probably be perceived as being white. We want to be closer to nature and have some more land and space. We currently live in the city. We are both in healthcare.

I am writing because I have some reluctance about moving given I have been around a lot of minorities most of my life. Parkton schools seem to be really good and the few people I know in the area seem great and very open-minded but I want to get anyone and everyone's take. I worry about distancing my son from a big part of my life.

I would like to get anyone's honest, unfiltered opinion on minorities living in the area. I would like to know if I'd likely be welcome with open arms or if it's something I shouldn't even consider. Thanks

We’ve lived in Balt Co most of our lives. 30s married heterosexual couple with little kids. Liberal minded but do like a more rural feel as far as where we live with access to amenities the city has to offer (ideally within 30 minutes of downtown)

We’re looking to upgrade our home in the next few years and aren’t sure where we might look for a village. We’d like a nice cul de sac of young like-minded families to build community with. Maybe local events and activities. Anyone of a similar background have a community that they love?

We’ve considered moving completely out of area, but aren’t sure if the grass is in fact greener or if we’re just missing something great under our nose

I need a root canal (through a crown, hence the endo referral). I do not do great with dental stuff. Need suggestions on a good endodontist please!

Hi! I am a newbie in the civil engineering industry (took a detour after school was done) and I am STRUGGLING to prep for the certification exam. I don't think its my ADHD (but it totally could be, along with testing anxiety). If anyone is currently studying planning to start and wants to link up please PM me!

Hiya! Looking for hard-hitting, intensive 18+ hip hop, contemporary/modern, tap, and jazz funk classes in or around Baltimore. I want to be pushed. I want to improve my technique.

Background: Dancing for 16 years, multiple styles, and will be starting college in the Baltimore area in the Fall.

I want to be a commercial dancer, choreographer and eventually a dance teacher. I was in a demanding dance program in high school and my college's dance offerings just aren't on the same level.

My parents are both retired and disabled. They both worked over 30 years at their respective jobs and now they are slowing down...I was a late in life baby.

I've begged and borrowed money to travel to NYC to take classes at Broadway Dance Center, Peridance, Brickhouse, Steps on Broadway, etc... I’ve also attended multiple intensives at CLI in Massachusetts.

Side note: I was actually accepted to attend CLI's 10 month conservatory training program, but I can't afford the $27,500 tuition plus $1100 per month room & board...(any suggestions for funding?)

TL;DR: Freshman college student looking for challenging hip hop, tap, jazz funk classes at studios in or around the Baltimore area. Tired of the EXPENSIVE and/or tiresome to commute to NY or Northern Va for dance classes.

Thanks!

Know a set was invalidated and replacements are being sent. Mine was received by mail late last week. Is there a way voters can check and see if it’s good to use or not?

Looking to move to a suburb of Baltimore, specifically Pikesville or Towson. What’s the commute like to downtown for work? I hear there’s traffic, what times are the worst/to avoid? I don’t mind leaving early in the morning but not sure what time I will be able to leave.

Thank you!

Hi, I'm looking for a hair salon that will accommodate muslim women in the sense that they can make an appointment to be in a secluded/private area. I've looked online multiple times but don't see any specific results so I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations, preferably closer to the west side of baltimore county. I also haven't gone to a hair salon since i began wearing a hijab so I don't have any good recommendations that I can fall back on. Any help is appreciated

Thank you!

Hi, all! Does anyone have a nice, safe yard or outdoor space for my cat to roam? I can pay you hourly for the use of the space and it would be during daytime hours only. Some background/context: I live in the city and my cat is not happy being inside all the time. I’ve tried a catio, walking with a harness and leash, pet stroller, and using SniffSpot and all of these were fails.
