Blogging on vacation

We are in Philadelphia for the RTOG meeting, which started on Thursday. I talked Mike into taking a few days of vacation and we went to Lancaster County for the beginning of the week. We stayed at the Vogt Farm B&B and went to Gettysburg for a day. Mike is at his meeting, and here I am...blogging while on vacation. Some photos from our stay...it is an actual farm.


With this lovely farm house...


Complete with a grain elevator...

and cows...


and corn...

and a gray barn cat...


This was our room. Kind of 80s country decor, but very comfortable. And you will notice that the windows were open. They had temperatures in the 90s the week before, but it was wonderfully cool when we were there. We even got to sleep with the windows open...something that never happens in Houston. I slept like a baby!

Here in Philly we are staying at the Loew's Philadelphia. It's in the great old art deco PSFS building and right across from the Macy's in the old John Wanamaker store. I happened to be there Thursday evening while the organ recital was going on...quite a unique experience.
