Kelly and Puzzled, I am with you 2. I want to go and do what ever you 2 want. I dont wanna sit in the hotel. So lets see how creative we can get. Long as its not too spensive....LOL And I am thinking with kelly's history (her posts on the great deals she is always getting come to mind) that she can help us find a good deal or two.

Wish I had more room-you could all stay here and I wouldn't even charge you! Had I ever gotten to move I would have a spare bedroom AND a family room but since I didn't-we have neither. I am not going to stay the extra night but since I am driving I can leave whenever I want. And I can even come back the next day. I am 8 miles from the hotel. Even though I am scared to death to drive in Philly. I drive all the way to VA with no problem but Philly makes me a nervous wreck. But I'll force myself to see you guys! What are they saying about the weather for this weekend kk? I am kind of hoping that the really nice weather we have had these past few days and will have tomorrow will be in Philly for this weekend....

It is supposed to be 53 on Friday and 60 on Saturday and Sunday but raining. It has been freezing here.
I am so excited to see and or meet everyone but going to Philly is no fun for me. I have been there like a trillion billion times. I have seen all the historic things on class trips in grade school. As far as the bars and clubs go I have been there done that too. They are MOBBED. Kelly are you talking about Finnegan's Wake? I have been there a few times and it is one of those place where you can't even walk its so crowded. Thats basically what is in Philly-clubs. That and a bunch of cop-killers.
But you must all try a cheese-steak if you have never had a real one!

Oh well, we won't melt I guess....crowded bars do not interest me in the least, but I am up to try a cheesesteak...no onions though, can't stand onions...or peppers...so maybe you will say it is not an official cheesesteak?

Oh hell...I didn't mean I wanted to go to a bar!! I'm NOT in the picking up mood!! Nor do I look like it!!! I meant an UNCROWDED bar where we could sit around a table. The online stuff says Nodding Head Brewery is a place to possibly check out. But I also read that the Reading Terminal has bunches of restaurants....Braverman's being there as well as Down Home Diner that got good reviews. There is also a place called More Than Just Ice Cream that's open till midnight (1119 Locust St) that serves what looks like ridiculous amounts of big desserts. (check out http://www.hollyeats.com). I've looked up Sarcone's Bakery but it's only open till 3. I also read good reviews on Isgro and Horolds. But we're doing that walking tour thing for lunch (well, 1:30-4) and we're supposed to get a "real" philly cheesesteak...I'll keep you posted on that. Unfortunately, this disconnect between my mouth/stomach/brain on this prednisone is always leaving me feel hungry...can you tell?

Because my plane leaves at 7 in the morning. So I onlt have saturday night with you all. And I will be gone in the morning by the time you all wake up I want to be able to do stuff with you all. But I will not be there with you guys and I feel bad but I cant.
