PHILADELPHIA MUSEUM OF ARTS ......CARFT SHOW WITH THE MOSTEST

EACH YEAR I GET TO GO WITH MY ROOMIE FROM SU (yeah orangemen) TO THE PHILADELPHIA  MUSEUM OF ART CRAFT  SHOW. THIS YEAR WAS NO EXCEPTION. WE MEET IN THE MIDDLE.....30TH STREET STATION IN PHILLY THAT IS (GORGEOUS OLD STATION).  THE DAY IS ONE THAT WE LOOK FORWARD TO WITH GLEE.  LUNCH IS ALWAYS AT THE READING TERMINAL MARKET ( WE LOVE THE FRESH TURKEY SANDWICHES WITH CRANBERRY SAUCE FROM THE ORIGINAL TURKEY).  THIS YEAR READING TERMINAL WAS SWAMPED, CRUSHINGLY CROWED BECAUSE OF A DOCTORS CONVENTION (SWOON.... LOTS OF CUTE MD'S)  RUMOR  HAD IT THAT ROOMS WHERE HARD TO GET WITH MANY ARTIST HAVING TO COMMUTE ONE HOUR TO GET  TO THE SHOW...... WHAT A BUMMER!  BUT ALL IN ALL, IT WAS WELL WORTH GETTING UP EARLY AND CATCHING THE BOLT BUS.....
