Trip Out East Part 4 (Philadelphia Fun)



We just drove into Philadelphia, and we had to find a place to eat. So we stopped at Pat's.
I had never a Pat's Cheese Steak, it surprisingly delicious! It was also cool because Geno's Cheese Steak its competitor was right across the street from it.  And also, at the very spot of the restaurant, the movie "Rocky", was shot in 1976.  And we were right there!
Tight parking.
After a very delicious lunch, we wanted to go sightseeing.

But finding a parking place in Philadelphia was not as easy to find.

After much looking we finally found a suitable parking place but it had a time limit sign and we had to park behind the sign in our fifteen passenger van. Which as you now that would make it a vary vary tight fit! And it was not cheap!

But even with all that trouble I still had so much fun.


Trip Out East Part 3 (Philadelphia Fun)

Today on Phily fun I will show you the trip on the way to Philadelphia.
First we had a nice eight and a half hour-tip to Ohio.  We stopped there for the night, and then had another eight and a half hour trip to Philadelphia.  Coming up, tight parking.

Funny Sunday

Today is Funny Sunday so I thought that... oh, it's joke time. 

"Did you know deer nuggets are cheaper than chicken nuggets?

Chicken nuggets are $1.49, but deer nuggets are under a BUCK..."

OK.. that was a good one!
 "A ducks walks into a bar and asks, "Got any grapes?" 

The bartender, confused, tells the ducks that no, his bar doesn't serve grapes. The duck thanks him and leaves. 

The next day, the duck returns and says, "Got any grapes?" 

Again, the bartender tells him that, “no, the bar does not serve grapes, has never served grapes, and, furthermore, will never serve grapes.” The duck, a little ruffled, thanks him and leaves. 

The next day, the duck returns, but before he can say anything, the bartender begins to yell: ''Listen, duck! This is a bar! We do not serve grapes and if you ever ask for grapes again, I will nail your little duck beak to the bar!'' 

The duck is silent for a moment, and then asks, ''Got any nails?'' 

Confused, the bartender says “no”!

''Good!'' says the duck. ''Got any grapes?”

Ha ha ha! OK were done tell next funny sunday.

Trip out East! part 2

 Today I would  like to talk  the Vietnam Memorial.
History about the Vietnam war;
The Vietnam War was the longest war in which the United States took part. The war began in 1957 and ended in 1975. At that time, Vietnam was separated into Communist-ruled North Vietnam and noncommunist South Vietnam. North Vietnam wanted to end U.S. support
 of South Vietnam and to unite the north and south into a single nation. The United States and the South Vietnamese army tried to stop them.

Quote-

"Walking down the steps of the Lincoln Memorial you can see people moving to your right; groups drifting in and out of sight among the trees. As you approach, your eyesight is suddenly jarred by the black granite wall - ripping its way along the hillside and staggering upon first seeing it"-unknown.

I think if there was one sentience That described the Vietnam Memorial best it would be...

...a wall of memory.

I like to collect coins, so  I was thinking about getting a 2007 Golden Dollar 25-Coin Roll . But I did not now that I would have to pay $35.95 for only $25.00 dollars worth  of coins! that is $10.00 more!. I think that should change!
Now lets just say that you are on the U.S. Mint Online Catalog website, and you like to collect coins. So you want to buy a coin on the web but it is to expansive, What website do you try next? I try eBay!. EBay does not always have what I am looking for but it sill works!.
