City of Brotherly Love

This weekend Ryan's sister Megan gave us her magical history tour of Old Philadelphia. We weren't past the Liberty Bell entrance before it dawned on me how horribly my 19 years of formal education have failed me, as easily 90% of my knowledge came from the John Adams mini-series on HBO (and the other 10% likely came from National Treasure...house of Pass and Stow, anyone?). Lucky for me, Megan teaches US History for a living, so her knowledge base was a little more well-rounded.
