I took the EL from 5th
Tomorrow 4 Broad Street Run
Street to 11th St. and from there I bought my Trans-pass. I also rented a car rather than using the Car Share
since it's going to end up the same after all the hour or add it up at the weekend break. I'm sitting at
Pano Side Effects
Jefferson Station. I'm using their Wi-Fi and relaxing at this point I'm updating my blog and checking

things. I just thought of something, I would I would pick up Amy at her place and drive her around

Might as well get my full value for the car for the price I'm paying for it. Another thing is I can do my

laundry. That's the plan. Plans can change. I was thinking of going somewhere far away and coming back just for the hell of it as well. Well today is going to the best day when it comes to the weather. Its cloudy and cool BUT its NOT raining. Its going to be a soaking tomorrow for the Broad Street Run. Oh well. I went to the rental place at 12 street near Chestnut. Well I got my rental car at the enterprise lot at Joe and just not. They're going to give me a jeep. I decided to wait till small car cleaned. The car that I got was a Volkswagen Jetta 2015 job. Believe

it or not it does not have a USB port in the car. I even checked the owners manual. That was

an unexpected pain in the butt that I have to deal with on the whole trip up to Pitma and towards Melrose Park.

Anyhow, we first went to a place on Broadway in Pitman. They had high food looked very good. A weird thing happened as we are about to eat.
Driving in Philly
The owner told us we had to leave because there is electrical

Heading to Pitman
It was the first time I ever I believe restaurant because there was a fire issue. We then went to a Mexican place that was just like Chipotle. We liked it there

right back down to South Philly. Scenic route down second Street. No actually it was fourth Street

it was very interesting seeing all the parts of Olney, Logan and North Philly.  We found a parking space

about a block and a half away from the Dupree Gallery. We were very relieved that the gallery is

actually open at people in it. We pick up our work nicely bubblewraped by one of the men at the gallery.

We wanted to talk to Mr. Dupree he was otherwise occupied. We then went to Alyans since I was the one who was hungry. I think she liked it a lot. It had a nice cozy

 atmosphere. We took time to talk and catch up

on things. And the food was quite delicious as well. After that we walked back to the

car and we took the expressway to Roosevelt Boulevard and took a left at Mascher Street.

Friday, April 29: End of April and Cool (8:24PM Edition)

Waiting for Assist
Its  another cool April day here in Philadelphia. I actually got up after a decent nights sleep.
A Trip to Canada in June
That'll be two nights in a row my friends. I went to the sunrise but before that I found out the busty
TV Life
pork detour had an end it ended. It was a bit crazy there today. Afterwords I invited someone to go to my
56th Street
Canadian trip in May. He might actually go which would be fun. Today I hope to finish up and clear up
My Desk
some of my map that was caused by the fact that I interviewed at least 10 people yesterday. I got the shop

ability to get a call through at work. Well at least my computer works thank God.

and turn in this report. Mama left work after lingering around the Wi-Fi. I texted a few people and head
Bought Incense
down to Center City I was definitely feeling peckish by the map. It's a place where burger.Org used

to be. That's not really took the edge off of my hunger. Oh by the way, I did check for the rent plus $50.
Paying Rent
We agreed upon that and Cherl will buy food at the food coupons store. It's pretty cloudy outside.
19th Street
But the greens look really green that's the good part. I want news outside my bubble after the class a primer is it looks like it's deathly going to be at Trump for Quentin rates. Ted Cruz pick Carly Florina the ormer head of Hewlett-Packard to be his running mate. Meanwhile

Meanwhile the Philadelphia Eagle have some quarterback drama. On number two draft pick
Carson when arrived in Philadelphia today. Meanwhile Sam Bradford, the current quarterback
wants to be traded. He feels blindsided.
That's all it's going to need a flock so I think I need to just finish these blogs and go to the gym and eat late again
