Fort Smallwood is located on the western shore of the
Chesapeake Bay at the mouth of the Patapsco River,
about 11 miles south of Baltimore, MD.  All numbers
are unofficial.

Today was our thirteenth straight day of triple-digit
numberss, which has spirits, as well as hawks, soaring at
the Fort! With an Osprey on Friday, we broke our
all-time season record of 12,512. We're now over the
13,000 milestone. Our staple, a Sharpie, was #13,000.
