Halloween

Between the two

It was the natural turn of nature for the earth to spin around
One part pass the darkness as the other pass the sun
A wicked witch sought wizards to cast a special spell
for who tells time in hours repeats the magic spell
All Saints be praised for their guiding lights
but each day begins and ends at night

Walking Along Belgrade Street

 Changes  worth noting

Belgrade St has been re-imagined by default. It's popularity is interesting to look at especially around Palmer Cemetery and the improved design at Frankford Ave and Crease St. The improvements successfully put to rest any safety concerns. The speedway was shut down. (saw it for myself, it's better this way.)
Foot traffic around the cemetery has greatly increased because of many runners/joggers, dog owners/______(fill in the blank), normal neighborhood traffic and parents with small children out for a walk, scooter, bike or coach. The Belgrade St side has a garden feel to it. 
Belgrade St for many is the gateway to a vibrant commercial Frankford Ave. It was on a seat in the garden that brought about reflection of mixed feelings for the old and new but wise enough to enjoy the view moving on as to how I saw it.

Fishtown


6 years on
Take a relaxed bit of time here. It's friendly and so are the memories of old Rose Garden.



"You'd think they would know how to cross a street." aka both sides of the argument.

Some say "you won't recognize it." Others only know what's there.
Many neighbors once worked here.


For the Old Head


A garden front house is for sale. Let it be preserved.

A Walking Tour of the Neighborhood

Fishtown Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA

I took my camera for a walk over the past days. Our neighborhood has changed from "blue collar" to an upscale and still rising neighborhood. The past won't fade no matter the changes. It's just that kind of spirit that the new arrivals who are planting there roots here are starting to truly understand. 
Welcome too our home along Crease Street.

  

Thompson and Crease St
An empty lot transformed into a garden several years ago. The neighbors are trying to keep it a quite garden but the developers want to build. A worthy quest is in progress to buy the land to preserve the garden. Every little bit helps and so stop by and look for yourself and hopefully make a donation
Help Save The Crease Street Garden 



Boo!
The old and new
It's to the right of this picture where once a court stood
some are gone and some remain
The garden front homes that still beautifully remain
Kensington Soup House and its detailed history Kensington Soup Society
I wish the women on the roller skates agreed to have her picture taken. It would have been a nice addition in capturing the spirit.

I'm Going To C-Pac 2022

Great business opportunity

I just received approval for my vendor permit at the up coming 2022 C-Pac convention. I got a wonderful lucky location which is right across from the golden statue of our President Donald J. Trump.

We have a devout Christian portraying Jesus with two realistic back drops. We have Jesus in Old JerUSAlem and Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.



Think how your family will re-live that blessed moment standing together with Jesus thought-out the years. 
Stop by!  Enter our drawing for the 2 CD set of "Songs of Worship." (no purchase required) 
See you all at C-Pac and "Take A Picture With Jesus."

If I Were A Witches Hat....

 ....sitting on her head like a paraffin stove. I'd fly away and be a bat across the air I would rove*

                                             am I missing something or is someone else missing something
                                             intoxicating. my inner thoughts about it all wish not to be
                                             alone. I juggle my lives, balance the distance as to what's near
                                             me. and my shadow is cast because the sun is brighter than dreams
                                             in the night. I often wonder if there's such a thing as spells


inspire me
set fire to me
lie to me

The Steal/The Big Lie

 The proof is out there

I thought the History channel had Rudy Giuliani and Mike Lindell as the third segment of the show.

Ashes....

 ....to ashes


the keys unlock my fingers
a cigarette burns anticipating words
it smolders just short of a flame
