I agree it is a wonderful city in which to live.We share a similar pattern.I lived here just after college and then off to New York City for 23 wonderful years.I was accepted at the Pennyslvania Academy of Fine Art,the US's oldest art school and museum, to study in their 4 year certicate program.I am now a third year painting major.My studies have been exhilarating and so has my re- acquaintance with this wonderful town.I like to think of it as a microcosm of New York ,only you can easily walk the diverse the neighborhoods and I think connect more easily with the people and the place,but that may just be me bouyed by my time in New York. If you have not been to the Academy's museum please do so.There are treasures there to be discovered. Chris
