We love to walk around Center City, and went to Love Park in honor of Drew. Apparently Love Park was one of the top 3 skating sites in the world, until the city decided to ban skateboarding there in 2002.
These skaters were willing to risk the $300 fine to skate! If you want to help them avoid fines, check out http://www.ushistory.org/lovepark/index.htm.

Perhaps this is why it was named Love Park? Jk, actually, these lucky souls are tumbling off of the roof of TGI Friday's...would love to know the story behind it!
Logan Square...one of the 5 original parks that William Penn set aside when he planned Philadelphia. We're really grateful for his dedication to open spaces, as we love to escape to Fairmount park!
More random sculptures that I'd love to know the story behind. This square is filled with game pieces--from Monopoly, Sorry, Chess, Checkers, and Dominoes. We couldn't figure out what the big blue circles were--they have white letters and numbers written on them. Let me know if you're familiar with the game they're from!

Sounds like you are having a good time in philly. Hope everything else is going good for you guys. Our house sold down here in Surprise and we just moved into an apartment this weekend until June. Everything else is going good here (Except for the long hours shane is gone, I know that you can relate!)
We're thinking the blue chips are from Bingo. Joe remembers it from his childhood many, MANY years ago.
Phil da love thats funny. Im glad you like the LOVE Park.
Philadelphia- The City of Brotherly LOVE
