After 5 days my daughter finally got to go home today. The surgery was a success. Now for the road to recovery. I thank those who sent prayers. And thanks to most of the staff at Hopkins. They were very caring and helpful. On different days, I roamed around to see what I could see. I like the older hospital section best.

The evening sun brightening up the old building.

One of many walkways that connects the various sections together. Nice hike.

I see a cruise ship back there – that will be Kathy and I in a few months.

Levels of the dome.

Looking up at the dome. They pretty much let you walk all over the place in here. I was only stopped once – security thought I had a drone controller in my hand.

I was told that Jesus’ foot is worn down by all the people that touch it for luck – I guess like the bronze turtle at College Park – I think it worked better for my daughter than it did this weekend for the football team!!

No plaque. Maybe the first source of water for the hospital when it was built?

My daughter was very strong through all this, considering what was involved. Thanks God!!

Two days in icu with my daughter.

They just keep adding on to this hospital. The section we are in was built by a sheik in gratitude for them saving his daughter.

Whenever I get a break from my normal job, checking on the contractors, I continue with my research and documentation of museum archives. Today I scanned a box of 5″ x 8″ photographs that had no markings or descriptions. I gave them my own, only so I know what is in the box. Each box comes with an electronic index after scanning.

So this guy gets worked on, sitting on a wooden chair in what appears to be a closet.

And this person gets a nice dentist office. Hmmm…wonder why?

Nurses posing. One in back right looks a little psycho to me.

Nurses posing again, this time with patients. Two of which are posing themselves. Not sure what two nurses on right are doing?

A segregated ward no doubt. In my one book from 1935-1940 I mention about the blacks having a black doctor and the whites having a white one. For posing purposes I guess these guys get white ones (or was there no black doctors then at City Hospital?)

The only caption I could think to give this photo concerns torpedo tubes or pressure cookers??

hd029

I wonder what malady this person has/had, that needs this many doctors??

hd010

A little odd. A hand wearing a ring on the desk and what looks like a nose hanging on the wall??
