Big surprise. We went to three new parks on Sunday. The first is the Lower Delaware National Scenic River. We chose a spot in Pennsylvania where Washington crossed the Delaware on Christmas Eve of 1776 and defeated the Hessians who were at Trenton, NJ. Then into downtown Philadelphia to view the Edgar Allen Poe house and the Thaddeus Kosciuszko house. Poe lived here for 6 years and Kosciuszko was a brilliant military engineer from Poland who aided the American cause. I feel like I cheated a bit on the last two but they have been closed more than two years on one and 18 months on the other. This would have been my second try to take the tour. The very limited hours even when they are open stil make these two downtown stops a challenge. For the present I will count them as visited but if the opportunity arises I will re-do both of these sites.
The Lower Delaware flowing past - one of three places we have been on the LD, the others pre-photos.

Update Cadillac - where, what and with whom — for his fans
I have found out that Cadillac is not waiting for his hat even though it will add “greatly to the erudite caliber” of his writing but is waiting for his muse. I expect his “muse” is a latte.
