Charm City's Charm

Baltimore Boy Michael Phelps has been breaking records in the 2012 Olympics and is the most decorated Olympian of all time with 19 medals. He is a huge fan of Baltimore based company, Under Armour and even appeared on a billboard that said "Welcome to Baltimore".

His waterfront property at The Crescent in Fells Point is currently on the market.

Phelps is a dog lover and has a Bulldog named Herman and a Catahoula mix named Stella.

He even bought JCW's childhood swim club Meadowbrook and re-named it Meadowbrook Aquatic & Fitness Center. Meadowbook is where Michael Phelps trains when he is home.

Special thanks to Michael Phelps for putting Maryland on the map...Baltimore is no longer just known for crabs, Bo and The Ravens.

I had forgotten he had a bulldog. Herman looks like a fun time!

So proud of Michael's accomplishments! Can't wait to see his race today. I am going to try and watch it 'live' online so I do not have to wait for prime time! (And I love that he is a fellow bulldog owner!)

While all my friend's spent their weekends having a grand ole time in high school, I spent mine traveling to B'more for NBAC and KCO events. Beer soaked parties at Devil's Wood Yard for them, chlorine soaked meets at Calvert Hall and Towson State pour moi...XXOO

Baltimore has been "on the map" for more than 100 years thanks to Mr. Johns Hopkins.
