Philly

We played this morning in Camden, NJ as part of our outreach with Appel Farms. Camden is just on the east side of Philadelphia and is part of the inner city neighborhoods in the area. There are sections of the neighborhood that look like CNN footage from some war torn region on the evening news. To say that it is economically depressed is an understatement. We played for students from the Washington School and enjoyed chatting with Principal Malcolm Adler after the show. Kids are such Tabula Rasa's with unlimited potential. Jenn and I talked about the work that Prinicpal Adler and the rest of the staff are doing for these kids. Their dedication and commitment to these kids and their well being is humbling. It matters. Love in action.

Afterwards, we headed over to 6th street in Philly to eat at Gianna's Grill. Gianna's has a wide selection of Vegan Pizza's and even a Vegan Philly Cheesesteak!! Cupcakes, cakes and more are just the beginning at Gianna's, and they are all vegan. With stuffed bellies we headed back over the bridge and back to Appel Farms for the evening. Here's a pic from my Mac laptop out of the front of the car. The quality sucks. I have got to get a new camera.
