Christina and I needed a little break from Colorado and we decided to take a vacation... first stop wonderful Philadelphia. What a great time we had exploring this historical giant in our nations founding.
Good ol Robert Morris... He was known as the "Financier of the Revolution". He once graced the likes of the thousand dollar bill...
Here is a photo of me with the First Central bank built in Philadelphia in 1795-1797 a time when each state had its own currency, the need for one currency was as great as ever.
What would a tour of Philadelphia be without seeing the old Liberty bell, another symbol of our country's freedom and efforts...
One of the key historical sites - Independence Hall... here the United States Declaration of Independence was approved on July 4, 177, and the Declaration was read aloud to the public in the area now known as Independence Square.
We had an enjoyable time in Philadelphia and hope to return soon...
