Summer in Philadelphia

We left our sweet home of ten years for an amazing job opportunity in Philadelphia, PA. I’ve daydreamed of raising a family in an urban setting—having the exposure to different cultures, hustling-and-bustling, raising kids to be street smart (what the hell does that mean?), etc. Boy I was wrong. Living in the city just means you have to work harder for everything be it parking, decent education, organic grocery store, etc. And yo, Philly what’s with the attitude?

The move feels like a marathon. We’ve been here 4 months and we are still getting settled in. I’m sure it’s going to get easier. It just feels endless sometimes. Here are some farewell memories of Oregon and some hello memories of Philadelphia.
