Maryland

Maryland says a big hello and 
welcome in many ways, whether you
come for a month, week, or just the 
day.

Americas largest estuary, with 
towering Cypress trees makes you 
want to take a deep breath and find 
your harmony.

Restful views from surrounding 
waters, from the bay to the beach 
they are all easy to reach.

Yesteryears teachings of Civil War 
battles and boasts the birthplace of 
our nations "The Star Spangled 
Banner".
  
Luck can be tested by those who 
gamble, casinos boast jackpots but 
you may leave in a grumble.

Agriculture is visible for miles 
around as well as chicken houses, 
and not trying to be funny but the 
locals call it the smell of money.

Navigate the Chesapeake Bay for 
bountiful fishing, and don't forget the 
steamed crabs that are great for 
dipping.

Destinations offer fun from the mountains 
to the bay, but consider yourself 
warned, you may want to stay!

So the next time you are considering 
making a reservation,
I hope you will make Maryland your fun filled vacation.

Thank you brother and you are to sweet. I can edit if you see anything that needs to be changed. How did you make the first letter darker and stand out, I couldnt seem to figure out how to do that.
