Summer in the City


We've been working on our urban cred this month, making the most of Philly now that we've officially moved across the line. Thanks especially to the various Philadelphia Jennifers who have helped turn us on to city attractions--and especially Jenn Nix, who alerted us to the fact that we live two blocks from the trolley terminus, and that's it's a cheap, viable way downtown. Suddenly we feel less like suburban posers. At least a bit.

At the swimming pool hidden between 48th and 49th, Spruce and Pine, in the interior of the block. Again, thanks to the kindness of the Nix-Kable klan

Yay, Philly! I used to live at 48th and Spruce, right around the corner from that pool (-:

Glad you guys are enjoying the city… hope we can meet up with you there in not too long.
