LRSABecker............i completely forgot about that. We used to do it when we were kids too , my dad , while not saintly in appearance , must have been a saint , he used to take several of us not only to the hatchery to feed the trout but also fishing , looking back , and dealing now with the reality of being responsible for as many as 5 or 6 youngsters at once , i honestly don't know how he did it , and he did it frequently. I guess they will still let you do that. (feed the fish?) Does anyone know? The Reynoldsdale hatchery , which now has a visitors center with an aquarium , filled with fish from Pennsylvania waters , is what i'm inclined to try but i wish i knew for sure if they still let you feed them. Inner Harbor and the old Camden Yards was also an option , i have a bud who lives in Belair MD. he was gonna be our tour guide , but the 5-6 hour drive from J-town was a negative fer sure. Thank you all for your help , David , i'll probably visit the one in Pittsburgh too on a future outing , if this arouses interest , i'd like to make fish , water , aquariums , etc. my regular thing with these kids , eventually actually fishing , right now there are three , 2 five year olds , a boy and a girl , and 1 four year old boy , the five year olds start school this year. Thank you all for your help , i'm gonna need it.
