The American Society of Landscape Architecture held it's annual convention in Philadelphia in 2008, so we made the trip back and stayed with some lovely friends (thanks Vanessa and Cole, and Rebecca and Audrey!). It was a whirlwind vacation. We attended the convention, visited Olin, took Ian's professors to visit his project site and took pictures of the site, went to a wedding, discovered the game Bang! courtesy of Fred and Laura, went to church and experienced the new organ, were offered "mushrooms" shortly after we walked through the gayborhood back to our friend's place, had lunch with some other wonderful friends, enjoyed cheesesteaks and our most favorite dessert ever... and I'm sure that's not all of it. As you can tell, it was quite the adventure! I failed to take pictures for most of it, but I'll share a few favorites.
We walked past this on our way to cheesesteaks. An artist turned an entire empty lot into a mosaic masterpiece using bits of bottles and other random trash and wow was it amazing! |
Stay tuned! The next Fall in a Flash will post tomorrow!
