Philadelphia


We were dorks. Wearing round red CD players around our necks and ear plugs in our ears we followed the audio tour of historic Philadelphia. We stood in front of buildings or sat on a convenient bench and listened to stories of bygone days, most of which we'd first heard in elementary school. The people are American heroes, the places, icons of American lore. These documents and deeds, men and women, are the foundations of our patriotism. Today was a reminder of what it means to live in this country, where it started and why and what it took to make it all possible. When in the course of human events...



Free to be dorks and fortunate to have today's inspirational reminder.
