Back to Jim Thorpe with Kay

I made it to Kayla's house in Philly at 10:30 - exactly on time. We were out the door at 11 and hit next to no traffic on the way, reaching Broadway in JT, PA by 1:15 with only one peepod break in Allentown. Fifty-eight grueling minutes later we finally found a parky spot, just as we were about to give up. The town was jumpin' but we weaved through the crowds to our favourite shops. Kay got the Medusa head she admired last time we were at Emporium of Curious Goods and I got some bracelets. Then we each picked up a couple books at Sellers plus Hank's Root Beer and a vegan cupcake at Muggle's Mug. It was hotter than we wanted it to be at halfway through October but we had a really good time and some of the trees were beginning to show their Autumn colours. Tony Bennett, Mathis, and Hozier played in the background of our chit chat on the way there and Billie Eilish took command on the way home. Stopping for Naked Lunch at MOM's on the way home was a scrumptious end to our day together. I'm hoping in December she and I can go shopping in Haddonfield, NJ and maybe over to Collingswood. More on that later!
