Last Sunday

Last Sunday I took a walk around the Art Museum neighborhood. It was pretty.

I like that, somehow improbably, all of the Philly you ramble in is of a human-sized landscape. So far not 80 zillion story buildings that give me vertigo to simply contemplate, no buildings with multiple block footprints that give me anxiety to think about in terms of merely negotiating them.

I spent a long week in Philly on business years ago when I lived in the DC area and I felt that it mirrored DC in its human to building scale but I was afraid maybe I was making that up because I never went past wherever it was that I was.

Maybe my instincts were actually correct and it is not a huge skyscraper sort of place.

Looked nice in any event.

We in our not so urban city are simply wishing for rain. Anything else is lagniappe.

Well there is Center City but I often find myself not all that impressed by its relative tall-ness. First off, it's just not as tall as Chicago' buildings. Second off, eh none of the tall buildings are that super.

Yeah this neighborhood walk is, in fact, my soon to be neighborhood. It is very exciting.
