I stuff my laptop and camera into my bike basket and head off to explore a new neighborhood.
Typical summer weekday.
When school is not in session and I can explore a different balance between work and play, I find new-to-me spots and call them home for a few hours.
A few days ago I rode in the direction of Fitler Square. I parked at Rival Bros. Coffee, where the Loretta Lynn playlist was righteous and the outdoor table I scored was perfect for puppy and baby watching. I cleaned up a unit plan until I had overstayed my WiFi welcome.
Then my grandma tastes got the best of me and I took a long walk and snapped photos of little houses and their flower boxes.
This is my idea of a reward for a little bit of work. This I could do all day.

And now I'd like to introduce you to my new favorite house in Philadelphia. Hanging Plant Heaven.
My future friends live here, I know it.
Man, I envy your life! (Not saying that I think it must be perfect but I miss those summer, kid-free and teaching-free days!)
