Sunday, November 10: Mom’s 95th Birthday
Today we woke up at the hotel and decided we’d go to Frank’s delicate testing for our delicious diner food experience. This
places sort of an icon of Asbury Park. We went there before and we enjoyed the food. It’s well priced and the food is very delicious.
It’s got that old school service that you remember. Anyhow we ate there and then we had a little bit of time before 11 o’clock to wander around the boardwalk
of Asbury Park, which was fun. It was a nice day out. It was a little warmer than we expected, but it was still pretty cool. We got a lot of pictures in. That was
really nice and enjoyed ourselves. We then hopped on the road with our Google maps anddrove via 195 route one I 95 and then I 476. just got to Delaware County and to the Media/ Swathmore
exit of the blue route. As you know, the blue root is interstate 476. I remember when that opened in 1991. It was a huge deal in the mainline times about the blue
roof they delayed the opening because neighbors didn’t want to go through
their nice neighborhoods. you just can’t plow a highway through
Upper middle class neighborhoods without a problem. Anyhow, we arrived on time about 4️⃣ minutes
early. We found a parking spot very easily. We got there before Alice, Marguerite, Wes, and one from the Kelly clan
of course. Anyhow, we had a room to ourselves that just had enough seats and enough room for all of us there. We had hors d’oeuvres or salad whatever you wanted. And then decided to have a chicken cheesesteak. I knew
after that I wasn’t gonna eat any more food except maybe a yogurt when I got home. Anyhow, we all ate caught up with each other and then the big rolling out of the birthday cake moment
came and my mom was in very good spirits and seemed to really enjoy yourself. We then posed for pictures and that was fun. I’d have a whole bunch of pictures probably
too many to fill this blog. Anyhow afterwards, Wes, Mary and I left together and Wes transferred a whole bunch of ICs from his trunk to my trunk. It was a very easy exchange. It’s very
hard to get together with Wes exchange the super Coffee sale was missed because they didn’t have my flavor. we said her goodbyes and Alice confirmed that she would be doing Hot Yoga with
us at 4 PM. I probably have to leave work a little bit early so I get there early enough to meet Allison and get her orientation done for the class. Anyhow, we drove
back to Mary’s. We couldn’t find a parking spot so I parked temporarily in front of the Dorchester to unpack
get a change of clothes and hang out
for a minute. We told the guys/attendance about that we’d be up for a half hour and that was really nice of them
to let us do that cause there was absolutely no parking anywhere near the
Dorchester/Rittenhouse Square. I then left with the car and the
parking meter was faulty and I took a bunch of video of that to make sure in case I got a ticket could easily contest it. And then went
home. Did laundry, relaxed, and had two yogurts and a couple juicy season watch the Eagles completed demolish the Cowboys 34 to 6. people saying the Cowboys
are bad but they could beat anybody but it’s great that Dallas is
sucking and downstairs near last place for the Giants who lost to the Carolina
Panthers. Also, the Washington commanders/Commies
lost to Pittsburgh by one point so I think we’re tied for first place with the Washington commanders right now.
