So I spent a little time down near Independence Hall yesterday (that's my bike in the for-ground). The crocus and daffodils are just starting to come up and I am hopeful that there will be flowers soon. I'm already making plans with my roommates for a backyard garden this summer. I figured I would share a couple of pictures from my trip yesterday.
Besides the long very cold bike ride over to the park, it was fun to just hang out after work. It was quiet, other then the traffic, and there was almost no one around.
Above is a shot of the National Jewish Museum. Which I have not been in yet (although I would really love to sometime). They have a lit sign that says Only in America, which I thought was interesting. I also got the chance to check out the Presidents House (our what is left of the Presidents House). It is a really intersting look at slavery in the beginning of America and the Slaves who lived with Washington in the house.
I always love checking out Philly. Although I wish it was warmer... I think I'll have to go back and check on the flowers in a week or so. I bet they are out or darn close to being.
Well there you have it... Anyone have a favorite place to look at spring flowers in the city? Or which is your favorite, Crocus, Daffodils, or Tulips?
