Ah, blogging. Here's my little corner of it all -- in West Chester, and well, from wherever on whatever. I'll let you know what I'm thinking and you can let me know what you're thinking. But remember, I can delete your posts.

Come On Fall

I was walking through Center City Philadelphia last night, up the Ben Franklin Parkway, around the fountain in Logan Square, just watching all the people that were sitting on benches and in the grass beneath the street lights enjoy what I'm hoping is the last little bit of summer we'll have.

As I said in an earlier post, I love the winter. Getting me to the beach isn't nearly as easy as it is to a ski resort. But I really enjoy walking around the city once it gets cool -- sweater weather.

Walking isn't as uncomfortably warm, it seems like there are more people moving around (whether they are going somewhere I don't know) and more importantly -- the smell becomes much more bearable.

The stench of sewer, garbage on the street and urine always disappears with the heat. That is reason to celebrate.

It's a problem that I suppose Chester County residents don't really have. But ChesCo residents do have horses, mushroom farms and, well, just farms in general. So maybe you are all looking forward to the heat and smells going away too.
