Wednesday, April 29: Spring has Sprung and May Approches

Well I decided to sleep in late past 6 AM since I needed my sleep badly. I woke up to a very nice spring morning.  It's spring as it was intended. I had trouble getting out of the house due to some digestive issues and

24th Street to Parkway

19th and Market

got out of the house in time. So I'm remembered that there's a detour on the 48 bus Monday through

Trolley Towards 30th Street

Friday 8 to 430 until May 8. This is due to PGW gas lines.

I was lucky I got the 48 bus at the Parkway and Pennsylvania Ave., Justin time. I also caught the

trolley at that showed up and didn't wait long for the EL. I did manage before catching the 48 to go to the ride bread and get a coffee two
