    This is my favorite area in Patapsco state park, I've brought many friends and family here over the…read moreyears. It's beautiful, you can find the ruins of an old mining camp and religious boarding school here. There's even a decent spot to jump off the train tracks into the water below, although take care because the water can be shallow in spots.

    Probably one of the more interesting hikes that I have done in awhile. The hike will be quite…read moreshort, but you got hills and steps to get your work out on. I think the feel of the place is supposed to be spooky, unfortunately, I picked a spring break day to do it and there were enough teenagers running around here like savages (just kidding, they were all really sweet) it doesn't really have a scary feel to it at all. To explain the ruins, it was Roman Catholic school in Ilchester, Maryland. The ruins are near Ilchester and Bonnie Branch roads (so the Yelp location is pretty straight on). It was called hell house in the 70s after it was abandoned and vandalized and rumors have it a strange cult started living there. It also had an over zealous caretaker who had a gun and some dogs and would assault vandals. He was displaced after the school was set ablaze by arsonists. Hell House altar structure that most people take pictures of is at the top of a very steep hill, about a mile in. It used to have a large metal cross, and it is a very unique place for a photoshoot. For easy access, park in the lot for patapsco state park (right past the train tracks) where the trailhead is and start coming up to the left of the train tracks.

    American Cities New Post Office - The post office is located in the same building as Fulton Banking next to the parking garage. I hope this helps.

    I am NOT at all surprised that there wasn't a Yelp page for this post office location. It took me…read more30 minutes driving around because my gps was going crazy trying to figure out where it was. I eventually found it and am now writing this review to do everyone else a favor. You're welcome! This post office is located near Columbia Mall, but you'll want to enter off of Little Patuxent Parkway. It's inside one of the shorter office buildings directly behind the mall and across from Merriweather/Symphony woods. The issue is that the storefront is not street-facing, so you'd have no idea it was there at all until you turned in. I believe the building is called the American City Building and there is a BB&T ATM nearby. Once you actually find it, you'll see that there are a couple of parking spots out front and plenty in the garage directly across from it. The lobby is on the smaller side with little packing space, so I'd suggest packing at home then dropping off. From what I learned, the end of the counter is the de facto drop off space for packages that are already posted and ready to go (as long as you don't need a tracking receipt). I didn't catch her name, but the blonde employee was so kind and courteous despite there being a line down the hall at 4:50pm, with a 5pm closing time. So happy to have written this review and gotten it off my chest because I was going around in literal circles around the mall lol.
