If I see the pic on your FB page or twitter beforehand you go into the “Do Not Shoot List” until I completely cut off all of Philly and I add you again back on top, ok maybe not so harsh but my mortgage company thanks you.

Saturday was the 7th Annual Midtown Village Festival, and the largest ever with activities and vendors on at least 7 blocks surrounding the epicenter. I loved that not only were there vendors representing from the neighborhood, but this year they had a craft area and individual vendors. The more the merrier I say.

The weather was iffy, but the crowds were strong.

I love the diversity of the folks that come out to enjoy the day.

I love when people get into the spirit and wear balloon hats. Now I did try and wait til she looked up, but she never did. She got her message and ran off.

Meaghan Peeler, Nel Roch and Meredith Setzman. The last time Nel had this much fun it was at the Color Race this past summer.
