Big Boy shut down early.

If you're still thinking about coming down, don't. They shut it down early due to too many people passing out from the heat.

Accordion community

We will be moving back to Philly in a fortnight and my hubby is a novice but enthusiastic accordion player- are they accordion jam sessions or group meetings?
He visited Liberty Bellows during the house hunting process but I’m hoping to connect him with some other accordion folk . TIA for any suggestions!

Where can I donate used LEGO sets?

I'm moving at the end of the month and am looking to downsize my LEGO collection. It's mostly Star Wars and Marvel with some Harry Potter and other themes mixed in. Are there any local charities or groups that work with children that would be interested in taking them? The sets are built but I still have the instructions for most of them. Thanks in advance!

Is it just me?

Or did the NBC 10 broadcast cut off and not show anything pertaining to the concert or fireworks after like 1230AM?

Was there a live feed anywhere?

Fireworks with a hint of lightning

Stayed up far too late taking a few pics on my friends deck. Got some lightning and firework booms.

3rd one is the finale. I kinda wish they were a bit more spread out - the smoke kinda ruined it for me.

I just left my camera on the deck for the 4/5th. You can see how windy it got in the 5th pic. The car lights are waaaaaavy.

Happy July 5th!

Feels like a war zone outside

With the crazy storm winds, the lightning flashes, the firework booms, dust flying everywhere. It’s absolutely insane outside right now. I know cherelle is pissed she’s gonna have to cancel the concert before the big headliners and fireworks.
