Blogger Switch

Hi everyone!  Starting today I will be posting my blog on a new website.  It is: http://scenesfromphiladelphia.blogspot.com/

I wanted to switch to blogger because it’s easier for me to use & thats what most other poeple on the City Daily Photos website use.  Please hop on over & check it out!  Also, please feel free to add this new link to your “follow” list.  Thanks everyone & I hope to see you on the new site!!

Free Hugs

 

Any takers?

As we watched the Free Hug people try to hand out hugs, another group walked  by with signs proclaiming “Smile, you are beautiful.”  The smile people and the hug people met in a giant happy, smiley hug-atopia (it was amazing).

Apples all lined up ready to be sold at the farmers market.

Please keep off grass

 

As we can see, these signs and yellow rope are very effective!

(although this guy did have a really cute puppy!)

Rittenhouse Square

Merry-go-round!

Horse on the merry-go-round in Franklin Square.  Kind of creepy and kind of pretty at the same time!

Peddlers Village

 

Tulips in Peddlers Village.  Peddlers Village is a cutesy shopping area in Bucks County, North/West of Philadelphia.  They have all kinds of stores from food to clothes, candy and nic-nacs.

Bottle Fence, the artsy version.

Bottle Gate

I always walk by this gate and want to take a picture of it and I finally did!  The gate goes into someone’s side yard and is decorated with different color bottles in a random pattern.  Just another example of the interesting artwork you can see all around Philadelphia!

Bainbridge St near 8th St

Theme Day: Statues

 

Pennsylvania Hospital, founded in 1751 by Benjamin Franklin and Dr. Thomas Bond.  This is the nation’s first hospital and the statue pictured here is in the back of the historic side of the building.
