Bike Blocked

Back with some more bike trip pictures.

A recent storm blew over that tree onto the sidewalk. Gotta walk around it. This spot is at the bottom of the ramp where we pick up a bunch of speed and coast for a good while, so that says no to that. If you zoom in, you can see the pink bee Hatchimal we left on that lamp post. It's been there for at least a month already.

Scoops Ahoy

Did you see the 3rd season of Stranger Things? There's a fictional ice cream shop called Scoops Ahoy that some of the kids work at. And you can go to Baskin Robbins for real-life treats from the show. My friend was plenty excited since it was such a fun bit on the show.

Of course, we HAD to get a USS Butterscotch. They were out of bananas for the hull, but it's got the waffle cone sails. If I even have to say it, it was amazing. I'll give a special shout-out to our girl from the show because you can't spell "America" without "Erica!" I'll take one more moment to mention that on the show they point out Erica is a My Little Pony Nerd.

Hot Biking

Looks like there's a bunch of pictures in the camera from our bike trips.

This is a fairly condescending sign, you think? Does it imply YOU do NOT "Heart" your children? Because they certainly do. Do you think they all had a meeting to make sure they all [heart] their children? Maybe some family was like "Well not really but you can still put up the sign if you want." At least they ask with a Please.

My One Fan

Another bunch of random pictures. I hope there's at least a few people who look forward to this fun nonsense.

During the hottest week of the year, the Air Conditioning in our car stopped working. After a small investigation, smacking the fan would get it working again, but even that stopped working after a few times. Looks like the fan was blown. Which blows.

Snow Delay

I took a bunch of snow pictures last Winter that I purposefully saved in order to post them during the summer.

Did you ever think about taking a snowy day and putting it in a bottle somehow, to open it up during the hot summer? I guess that's what I was trying to do here. Is it working? Did someone say the bottle is in Australia this time of year?

Hot Day of Vacationing

One last bunch of pictures for my Friend's visiting Parent's trip. We're still in New Hope if you missed the last bunch of pictures. And it's like 100 degrees outside.

There's a more nature-style trail this way along the river, but we chose to go down the street with the shops to stop in. While this trail does have a bunch of shade, it was mega-hot that day and we would need air conditioned shops instead.

New Hope Hotness

The next day we drove our visitors to Lambertville for the bridge-walk over to New Hope. The recent storm blew in a massive heat wave. It was, without exaggerating, 100 degrees outside. We knew it was going to be a little rough to walk around, but there are plenty of cool shops to pop in to. Both cool with air conditioning, and cool with shopping.

Check out this awesome parking spot! It's the closest you can get to the bridge, right on the corner. We've been here lots of times, but if you don't know, This side of the bridge is New Jersey and over there is Pennsylvania.
