There’s something kinda fun about a swimming pool that dangles enticingly off the edge of a luxury hotel while the rest of the world watches on with a mixture of mock envy and bemused contempt. In my next life, I want to own one of these, then taunt the other half with graceful aquatic antics on windswept Dallas afternoons. [photo by Justin Terveen] Read more

So much of the Baltimore scene seems geared towards day-glo-clad party people, so it’s nice that introspective, country-tinged folk is also well represented here in the form of Noble Lake, a Wye Oak-related project fronted by James Sarsgaard, who I hope won’t mind me calling the second coming of Townes Van Zandt.
