Philadelphia

Well we made it to Philly. It only took 9 states and 41 hours of driving time, but we made it!! Thanks again Dad and Dane for making the drive with us. Sorry we didn't have time to go see some of the town, but I will get some pics up when we get some good one of the cool sights to see here.

Ashley and I have been busy getting boxes unpacked and setting up the house. It is coming along pretty well we just have a few more to go then we will be all settled in here in the new apartment. We did get a chance to drive into the city. It kind of happened by accident. We were out going to the bank and then decided to keep driving for a little bit to see the area around us and get a feel for things. Pretty soon we were close enough to just keep driving right into downtown so we did. We drove around city hall and then up Broad street to the dental school so Ashley could see it. Then we drove back toward home and then past it out to Media on the Baltimore Pike. It was kind of fun to get to see the areas surrounding where we live. I still want to get into the historic part of town, so hopefully we will be able to go do that here in the next few days.

Well that is about all for now. We are here doing well and getting settled. We miss you all.
