My Place in Philly

Here are a few pics of my sublet in Philly and the park across the street that has a farmers market every saturday! It's also quite the hangout spot, every evening it's packed with all kinds of people!
I'm currently on the hunt for a permanent apartment, it sucks! I know I'll find something though.
So far I love the city! It's so cute, with lots of history and amazing architecture. People are very friendly here and there is always stuff going on, block parties, farmers markets, street fairs, stoop parties (people hanging out on their stoops in front of the buildings).
Yesterday I met with a new potential roommate and she took me on a walk through the neighborhood. We sat in front of the 1st bank ever in America. Then in front of the second bank ever in America. It was amazing! I will definitely wonder back there and take pictures for the blog. There are also these really cute historic pedestrian blocks that look like rows of hobbit houses. There seem to always be tours going on there so I have not taken any pics yet but I will soon!

The entry to the apartment and the "welcome home sign" the tenants that I'm subletting from left me! They have been soo sweet and welcoming, I'm very lucky!

Please say hello to Marko!  He is a 7yr old poodle X toy fox terr.  His previous owners have been clients with us since he was a puppy and I have always really liked him, a couple of months ago when they had him groomed I told Dustin that if they ever needed to get rid of him I would take him...who knew!?!?!?

He is about 9 lbs, wiry poodle hair that is cut SHORT right now.  Usually when Jessica grooms him she will leave a mustache & since his hair is wiry it sticks straight out like a frenchmen's. SO CUTE!  He is kennel trained to the nth degree and very well behaved.

While we are in KC for Andy's wedding he will be staying with Jessica and her family, other than that he will be traveling with us. We can't wait for you all to meet him!
