but i haven’t gotten them ready yet! my house is empty with beth and hilary back to seattle. we had a blast. went to the aquarium, eastern state penitentiary, imax movie Pulse by Stomp, and cooked lots of yummy food.
what did i do yesterday after they left? taught pork chop to ride next to my bike. she loves it! pictures to follow…
is that a real rhinocerus?
beth and i rode the trolley to the philadelphia zoo. it was both my first trolley ride and my first visit to the philadelphia zoo. it started out as a lovely cool, summer day. until after we arrived at the zoo and then it started raining. i think that it would be good to point out that when it is raining the animals go inside. what did we see? some cows, a miniature donkey and a gorilla. it was still fun and almost worth soaking wet. i really really liked the shrew.

the shrew!
i got really excited about seeing a rhino and then beth had to spend 5 minutes convincing me that it was a statue of a rhino.
getting ready for a dinner party tonight too!
wow. widgets away!
look ——-> you can see our twitter posts! that’s pretty exciting. if only i could get nat to twit. or tweet.
UPDATE: doesn’t seem to be real time. oh well!
WordPress for iphone?
Does this mean that my mom can get updates more often if I have the ability to post a blog from my phone? I will have to go back on my temporary “get me away from technology”- boo! O guess a happy mom is worth it.
Just laying in “bed” or really a mattress on the floor with the pups!
Wait! No way to upload pictures??? Bootleg!
Oops! Maybe I should read directions first!
helllllllllooooo out there
it has been far too long since we’ve talked, o blogosphere. i’m finishing up summer camp right now, which is great for kids but very taxing to work for 12 hours per day for 7 weeks. this week is the last week and we are going overnight camping for 4 days. i’m really excited, but the total count is 64 people and that is just crazy!
jim and heather are coming back to philly from viola’s wedding in montreal this weekend. we weren’t able to go for a number of annoying reasons, one being my stolen passport. i’ll have a couple of days to spend with them and then i’m off to parvin state park.
nat’s amusing himself with playing with pork chop, tofu and snert face. it’s pretty regular. i’m going to go out to eat with a friend and catch up later.
holiday updates
i know that this has been far too long in coming, but here are some philadelphia adventures, eugene adventures, seattle adventures and pork chop adventures.
