small plant of Saxifrage in bloom.  It was now half past one.
By the time we reached O.G., it must have been two o'clock and
by the time we reach Run Camp half past two.   We soon had a
nice fire & here we spent the rest of the afternoon.  It was
half past five when we started homeward.

November 9, 1903.  A trip along Gwynn's Falls from Edmondson Av. 
to Columbia Av.  I kept on the left bank of the steam until 
I reached the stock yards, here I crossed and went along the right
bank.  The ponds near the Edmondson Av. bridge were covered with
Spirogyra.  I secured a nice lot of it.  The weather was beautiful
<s>and I enjoyed</s>, the sun shone so brightly and the air was
so balmy that I could ot help but enjoy my trip.  Near the
bathhouses workmen were busy building a bridge across the falls
for the new railroad.  I stopped some time to watch them.  The
supports of the bridge are not built of stone but of concrete.  A
number of these bridges will be required as the railroad sometimes
follows one bank, sometimes the other.  The supports for the bridge
near the stock yards are finished.  They look very strong and I suppose
will do their work better than if they were built of granite.  Bridges
across small runs are built entirely of concrete.  At Frederick Av.
