Here are a few highlights from our trip to Vegas. We had a wonderful time.









The hotel we stayed at was the Stratosphere.
We road in a gondola with at the Venetian and were serenaded by a gondolier.

We were chauffeured back to our hotel by a limousine after we bought a time share.







We walked through the gardens at the Flamingo, it was beautiful.









Dad almost fell out of the tower at the Stratosphere!


Drooling.







Celebrating!









He gets all the girls!


We're grandparents now and celebrating our 30th anniversary.

My Apartment - far overdue














































I've been promising pictures of my apartment but it just hasn't been a priority and when it was, then my camera wasn't working! These are from different times, but should give you the gist of what it looks like. The apartment I live in used to be an old Victorian mansion and has since been turned into 6 small apartments. Mine is a good sized one bedroom and I believe they all are one bedrooms but the ones on the front of the apartment are even smaller than mine. I'm in the back of the apartment and am facing a courtyard type backyard where my neighbors from different buildings and backdoor porches occasionally have parties. Sound carries a lot here! But most of the time it is dead silent save for the occasional trolley horn when someone is parked on the tracks. By the way, most of these pictures are how the apartment was before I moved in, mine is decorated much differently. I wasn't abel to get those pics off my digital camera

Springtime in Philly





























I've been looking around admiring all the signs of spring in the city and tried to capture every instance I see! Enjoy...
